Three Reasons to Use FPGAs in Industrial Designs

Altera

FPGAs have evolved from glue logic and simple I/O expansion to serving as co-processors or even system-on-chips, or SoCs, in many embedded industrial designs. This tutorial will examine three reasons why FPGAs are beneficial in industrial designs: system integration, design flexibility, and performance scaling. Also, there will be a review of some resources from Intel®’s partner ecosystem solutions.
