Beyond Moore’s Law: New solutions for beating the data growth curve
By Daniel Joseph Barry, VP Strategy and Market Development, Napatech Many of the latest innovations in cloud, enterprise, and telecom networks are predicated on the assumption that the power of server CPUs will continue to grow in line with Moore’s Law. This law predicts that the number of transistors per square inch will double every […]
FPGAs handle IP for low-power, small form factor machine vision designs
As compute-intensive, vision-based systems are increasingly integrated at the network edge, Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are quickly becoming a preferred flexible platform for next-generation designs. In addition to requiring high bandwidth processing capabilities, these intelligent systems are deployed in small form factors with tight thermal and power constraints. To help developers accelerate designs, Microchip […]
