BEEcube Will Be Exhibiting at Milcom 2011

FREMONT, Calif., Oct. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ — BEEcube will be exhibiting at Milcom 2011 from Monday, November 7 to Thursday, November 10th at booth #1206 at the Baltimore Convention Center.

BEEcube is presenting the BEE4-W, the ultimate EW (Electric Warfare) and signal intelligence FPGA based prototyping platform.  Not only does it support full speed mixed signal systems with its high speed low noise DAC and ADC combo FMC cards, but it prototypes various real-time video image augmentation schemes.  For mission critical unmanned vehicle digital prototyping nothing comes close to the BEE4-W, the ultimate sandbox.

BEEcube will be highlighting the miniBEE, the newest generation BEE, which is similar to BEE4 customer usage but made smaller. miniBEE consists of a single Virtex-6 FPGA, LX240 to SX475, with up to 32GB of memory, two FMC slots, and a high end Sandy Bridge Intel Processor. miniBEE offers application flexibility and customization as well as significant throughput capacity in a smaller footprint. miniBEE makes an excellent lab addition to any testing environment.

BEEcube will be emphasizing these capabilities in an arbitrary waveform generator demonstration.  This system implements a complete arbitrary waveform generator with up to 16 billion samples memory capacity.  The BEE4 system also allows the user to create any signal form imaginable or preconfigured from Matlab. Signal interface is done directly through one of four BEE4’s “combined DAC/ADC” FMC expansion boards.

Another demonstration is a video processor reference design that features live high definition video streaming manipulation.  Real time manipulation is done all through software using BEEcube’s Nectar OS, allowing users to modify filters, FPGA registers, and coefficients interactively.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
