For developers using FPGAs for the implementation of floating-point DSP functions, one key challenge is how to decompose the computation algorithm into sequences of parallel hardware processes while ...

Native Floating-Point HDL code generation allows you to generate VHDL or Verilog for floating-point implementation in hardware without the effort of fixed-point conversion. Native Floating-Point HDL ...

Altera Corporation announced the release of its Quartus® II software v14.1 featuring expanded support for Arria® 10 FPGAs and SoCs, the FPGA industry’s only devices with hardened floating point DSP ...

Most of the algorithms implemented in FPGAs used to be fixed-point. Floating-point operations are useful for computations involving large dynamic range, but they require significantly more resources ...

LAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tachyum ®, creator of Prodigy ®, the world’s first Universal Processor, today announced it has successfully completed vector-based High-Performance LINPACK (HPL) testing ...

Any workload that has a complex dataflow with intricate data needs and a requirement for low latency should probably at least consider an FPGA for the job. FPGAs have, of course, been operating in the ...

There has been plenty of talk about where FPGA acceleration might fit into high performance computing but there are only a few testbeds and purpose-built clusters pushing this vision forward for ...

In a newsroom post a few hours ago Intel boasted of a new chip on the block that is capable of 10 TFLOPS. The Intel Stratix 10 FPGA can perform 10 trillion floating point operations per second, claims ...

According to Altera it will be the first company to use fine-pitch copper, bump-based packaging technology for commercial purposes. The technology, patented by the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ...
