The Times They Are A Changin’

Moshe Gavrielov Gets His Zynq On and IBM Rolls Out a Graphene IC

In this week’s Fish Fry, my special guest is Xilinx CEO Moshe Gavrielov who chats with me about their new Zynq embedded processing platform and how he sees this new addition not only changing the course of the Xilinx roadmap going forward but also where he thinks the FPGA industry is headed as a whole.

Also this week, I explore the new Graphene IC unveiled by IBM and check out the Freescale/BMW collaboration that just might make parking our cars just a little bit easier.

And, in keeping with the Xilinx theme, you’ll definitely want to get in on the competition for this week’s awesome nerdy giveaway – a Spartan-6 LX9 MicroBoard and as usual you’ll need to tune in to find out how to win.

If you like the idea of this new series be sure to drop a comment in the box below.

Want early design analysis without simulation?

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Traditional verification methods are failing today's complex IC designs, which require a proactive, early-stage analysis approach. A shift-left methodology addresses IP block integration challenges and the limitations of traditional simulation and ERC tools. Insight Analyzer detects hard-to-find leakage issues across power domains, enabling early analysis without full simulation. Identify inefficiencies earlier to reduce rework, improve reliability, and enhance power performance.
