Contests, Boards, and Pi! Oh My!

Newark™ element14 Celebrates National Engineers Week
by Amelia Dalton

This week’s Fish Fry is brought to you by you. Yes, you. The DSP dude. The Coder chick. The Analog Grand Master. We’re celebrating engineers in all shapes, sizes, and process nodes. With National Engineers Week just around the corner, my guest this week is Tamara Jurgenson (Newark element14), and we’re gonna chat about Newark element14’s month-long engineering party.

I’m giving everyone the chance to win a LaunchPad Evaluation Kit courtesy of Texas Instruments, but you’ll have to listen to find out how to enter to win.

PCIe Gen5 x16 Running on the Achronix VectorPath Accelerator Card

Sponsored by Achronix

In this demo, Achronix engineers show the VectorPath Accelerator Card successfully linking up to a PCIe Gen5 x16 host and write data to and read data from GDDR6 memory. The VectorPath accelerator card featuring the Speedster7t FPGA is one of the first FPGAs that can natively support this interface within its PCIe subsystem. Speedster7t FPGAs offer a revolutionary new architecture that Achronix developed to address the highest performance data acceleration challenges.
