The FPGA (or ACAP) universe gathered at the San Jose Fairmount last week during the Xilinx Developer Forum. Engineers, data scientists, analysts, distributors, alliance partners and more came to learn about the latest hardware, software and system level solutions from Xilinx. Xilinx CEO Victor Peng set the theme of the event with his keynote. Xilinx (and thier partner's) business strategies revolve around three key growth drivers: Data Center, 5G and Automotive. The Samtec team … [Read more...]

Don’t Forget Bulls Eye® and FPGAs on Vacation
Prime vacation (or holiday) season is in full gear. Travel spots range from the beach to cultural attractions in the latest "hot spots". Whether sunning in the Côte d'Azur or hiking in the Andes, everybody's focus is their . . . smart phone? Really? For (almost) everybody, the latest moment MUST be shared on social media. What happens when no connection is available? Panic! Fortunately, connectivity is almost everywhere. Just ask the closest teenager! What does this have to do with … [Read more...]
An Eye Catching High Performance Test Point System
Samtec Bulls Eye® test point systems are ideal for high-performance test applications because of their compression interfaces, small footprint, and high cycle count capabilities. Bulls Eye is now available in 50 GHz and 20 GHz designs, with a system up to 70 GHz in development. Bulls Eye is a popular product because: The grid design and smaller footprint enables smaller evaluation boards and shorter trace lengths. The high-density array design significantly saves PCB space compared to … [Read more...]
112 Gbps PAM4 Backplane Cable: Higher Performance, Less PCB Complexity
In this video from DesignCon 2019, Scott McMorrow walks us through a live demonstration showing how NovaRay® Cable assemblies offer extreme density while enabling 112 Gbps PAM4 performance. In combination with an ExaMAX® Backplane Cable assembly, the traditional backplane architecture is retained, but with higher performance targets and lower PCB complexity. Samtec Flyover® systems can help extend signal reach and density to achieve next gen speeds by routing signals via Eye Speed® ultra-low … [Read more...]
Submersible Optical Transceiver For Super Computing
Next generation super computers, quantum computing, AI engines, and high-performance emulation systems are all evaluating the benefits of liquid cooling. Liquid cooling removes the heat more efficiently than airflow, eliminates the noisy, power-hungry fans used in traditional air-cooled systems and enables denser, more-efficient processing boards and systems. One technology holding back the adoption of liquid cooling has been the lack of optical transceivers which perform … [Read more...]
New Zynq UltraScale+ Platform Offers 32 Gbps via FMC+ and FireFly™ Interfaces
One of the most popular interfaces in the FPGA world is FMC. This has recently been expanded to FMC+. The new VITA 57.4 standard defines two new connectors. Combined, they offer 32 full-duplex channels running at 28 Gbps. However, the current generation of FPGAs and MPSoCs have transceivers supporting data rates in excess of 32 Gbps. Why? Emerging protocols – including PCIe Gen 5 and JESD204C – will run at 32 Gbps. Engineers developing solutions using 32Gbps+ protocols need … [Read more...]

Other spotlight products include AcceleRate® 56 Gbps PAM4 multi-row interconnects, 112 Gbps PAM4 NovaRay™ high-density arrays … [Read more...]
Key OFC 2018 Takeaways
There are few better places to be in March than San Diego. SoCal sunshine always beats wintry weather. Thankfully, OFC 2018 was located at the San Diego Convention Center instead of the snowy US East Coast. The sunny weather outside acted as a harbinger of the positive energy inside the convention center at OFC 2018. The technical sessions were filled with roadmaps from components and solutions providers. Attendees were eager with anticipation to see what the show would bring. Strong … [Read more...]
Live from OFC 2018: What Tech Trends Affect Optical Fiber Industry
OFC 2018 is in full swing this week at the San Diego Convention Center. Attendees from around the globe are attending plenary sessions, technical seminars, visiting exhibitor booths or meeting on the sidelines. What are some of the trends emerging from the show? Global 5G Rollout Will Affect Fiber Optics 5G network deployment is definitely accelerating. The US-based legacy providers both promise 5G will roll out to selected cities in 2018. Local governments are installing 5G small … [Read more...]
