Ahh . . . September. It reminds us of the the last bits of summer, kids going back to school and football. Of course, at Samtec we love global football and the North American kind well. In case someone asks, I am a HUGE fan of the Pittsburgh Steelers. In the high-tech world, trade show season is ramping up. Samtec will be exhibiting at two major shows this month. One is the AI Hardware & Edge AI Summit in Santa Clara, CA. The second tradeshow is the European Microwave Week (EuMW) in … [Read more...]

The calendar recently flipped into August. In many locations, August is usually the hottest month of the year. It's also a reminder to enjoy last-minute summer plans before the temperatures cool, like swimming or a trip to the beach. Many parents are also planning activities with their children before they go off to school. Our team of Samtec bloggers is no different. We haven't missed a beat with our weekly updates for our dear readers. Yet, we like to enjoy the summer just like everyone … [Read more...]
Samtec Technical Experts and Panelists Participate in Upcoming Webinars
Summer is here. The kids are out of school. Families are taking well-deserved holidays and vacations or even enjoying local staycations. Even though it's summer, design engineers still need to move their new projects along. Additionally, designers need to keep their skills sharp and learn about the latest tools. Some upcoming webinars will no doubt help the engineering community stay updated on FPGA SoMs, expansion buses and associated interconnects, and the latest on PCI Express® … [Read more...]
Samtec High-Speed Interconnect Enable New Artix and Kintex UltraScale+ SoMs
"Here we go again!" Yes, it is another blog on FPGA-based system-on-modules (SoMs). Why, you, dear reader, may wonder? Simply, embedded computing engineers love the versatility, flexibility and scalability that SoMs offer in system architecture design. Secondly, so many SoMs use Samtec high-speed board-to-boardconnectors. Here we go again, indeed! ;) UltraSOM! - New Artix UltraScale+SoM Family Embedded computing is global in nature, but there seems to be a lot of SoM design and FPGA … [Read more...]

Samtec Participates in PICMG Embedded Implementers’ Forum
Just do it! Do the work! Whatever phrase is used, embedded engineers thrive at accomplishing their design goals. However, next-gen solutions are more complex, small, and dense. Implementers are challenged to design next-gen solutions in quickly evolving applications like rail transportation, aerospace, and more. Getting a leg up in the design and implementation of complex systems offers improvements in time to market, cost, performance, reliability, and manufacturability. Another benefit … [Read more...]
Samtec and Arrow Partner on New Intel® Agilex™ 5 E-series SoC Dev Kit
"Intelligent edge." That is a new term for many. Basically it refers to the the increased computational capabilities at the edge of the communications networks. Typically, heavy compute loads are executed in data centers or on supercomputers. As the "intelligent edge" ramps up performance, those calculations are enabled by embedded devices using multicore CPUs, FPGAs, SoCs, and the like. Intelliegent edge and embedded computing applications combine faster speeds with lower power … [Read more...]
Samtec and Partners Present Industry Workshop at IMS 2023
May The Fourth Be With You! It's always my goal to write the Samtec blog on May 4, but it doesn't always work that way. Force ghosts, Mando, Grogu, and old-school Bib Fortuna, Star Wars (and other sci-fi movies) make me think about what's possible. Who'd ever think we'd have such global connectivity? In Star Wars, if you were out of communications range, a droid would just boost power. That's what Obi-Wan Kenobi asked R4-P17 ("R4" for short) to do when they were on Geonosis in Star Wars: … [Read more...]
New prodesign Acceleration Card Includes Samtec NovaRay® Extreme Density Arrays
The recent popularity and interest in ChatGPT underscore the progress AI has made in affecting everyday life. Who has asked ChatGPT to finish a homework assignment or write a blog? (For full disclosure, this blog has been written by a real person. Or has it? 😉) In any case, the backbone of chatbots like ChatGPT and similar services are high-performance compute platforms enabling neural networks and AI acceleration in data centers. Obviously, GPUs have a leadership position in AI hardware … [Read more...]
