Long Live the King – eFPGAs Reign Supreme

Flex Logix and Achronix Bring Embedded FPGAs into the Spotlight
by Amelia Dalton

In this week’s episode of Fish Fry, we’re getting out the LUTS and elevating our embedded IP with a two-part interview episode all about eFPGAs. Geoff Tate (CEO – Flex Logix) and I discuss the difference between embedded FPGAs and traditional FPGAs, the value of an embedded FPGA platform in your next design, and what the eFPGA landscape looks like going forward. In the second part of this week’s Fish Fry, I chat with Robert Blake (CEO – Achronix) about their foray into the world of embedded FPGAs.

How to Fast-Charge Your Supercapacitor

Sponsored by Maxim Integrated

Supercapacitors (or ultracapacitors) are suited for short charge and discharge cycles. They require high currents for fast charge as well as a high voltage with a high number in series as shown in two usage cases: an automatic pallet shuttle and a fail-safe backup system. In these and many other cases, the fast charge is provided by a flexible, high-efficiency, high-voltage, and high-current charger based on a synchronous, step-down, supercapacitor charger controller.
