DesignCon Take 2

Floating Point for FPGAs and TI’s Signal Integrity Solutions

In part two of my DesignCon 2012 coverage, I chat with Mike Parker (Altera) about FPGAs doing floating point and where he feels we are are headed in this realm. I also chat with Sanjay Gajendra (Texas Instruments) about how TI is aiming to make your multi-gigabit SerDes signal integrity issues a whole bunch easier. Also this week, I check out why the “app economy” has become a big deal in the United States and how a 9 year old girl is trumping this week’s mainstream scientific achievements.

I have another very cool MAX V CPLD Development kit (courtesy of Altera) to give away this week, but you’ll have to listen to find out how to win.

ADI's ISOverse
In order to move forward with innovations on the intelligent edge, we need to take a close look at isolation and how it can help foster the adoption of high voltage charging solutions and reliable and robust high speed communication. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton is joined by Allison Lemus, Maurizio Granato, and Karthi Gopalan from Analog Devices and they examine benefits that isolation brings to intelligent edge applications including smart building control, the enablement of Industry 4.0, and more. They also examine how Analog Devices iCoupler® digital isolation technology can encourage innovation big and small!
