S2C FPGA Prototyping solutions help accelerate 3D visual AI chip

S2C FPGA Prototyping solutions help accelerate 3D visual AI chip
by Daniel Nenni on 08-16-2021 at 6:00 am

aivatech product 1

3D vision technology is rapidly evolving. Compared to 2D vision technology that deals with planar information, 3D vision works with physical information, including depth, which makes it possible to recognize and measure objects with curved surfaces and arcs. In addition, as deep machine learning and big data computing technologies… Read More

Webinar: Hyperscale SoC Validation with Cloud-based Hardware Simulation Framework
by Daniel Nenni on 06-05-2020 at 6:00 am

Slide1

S2C has been developing FPGA prototyping platforms since 2003, and, over time, their FPGA prototyping platforms have supported increasingly larger more sophisticated FPGA prototyping projects with three key attributes; 1) scalable prototyping gate capacities, 2) a high-speed interface between the FPGA prototype and software… Read More


Webinar Replay – Insight into Creating a Common Testbench

Webinar Replay – Insight into Creating a Common Testbench
by Tom Simon on 06-04-2020 at 6:00 am

Common Tesbanch

These days the verification process starts right when the design process begins, and it keeps going well past the end of the design phase. Simulation is used extensively at every stage of design and can go a long way to help validate a design. However, for many types of designs, especially those that process complex data streams, … Read More
