Lattice Blog

Everyone, it seems, is now talking about how they’re planning to integrate AI into their devices, their factories, their workflows and, well, everything. But how they actually plan to make that happen isn’t always clear. Part of the challenge, of course, is that different workloads and different environments require different types of solutions. For those looking to integrate AI-powered capabilities into edge computing-based offerings, there are a relatively broad range of ways to ac...

Developing USB technology presents unique challenges, primarily due to the need for robust connectivity, speed, and power management within constrained device form factors. Compatibility across a wide range of devices, varying data transfer speeds, and demands for low latency and high-power efficiency place additional pressure on engineers to innovate within stringent technical limits. Engineers must integrate USB functionality into increasingly smaller modules, balancing functionality with desi...

This Lattice blog will compare and contrast some of the key differences between FPGAs and their primary competition, microcontrollers (MCUs).

Increasingly lower cost sensors, the migration to higher performance I/O interfaces, and the demand for “always-on, always-aware” functionality all present new challenges for designers of battery-powered mobile devices. Engineers building everything from phones and drones to wearables and industrial equipment are facing the same problem. 

In the depths of winter, with glitter from New Year celebrations still being cleaned off the streets, nearly 4,000 exhibitors descended upon Las Vegas. Starting your year with CES has become an annual rite of passage for consumer electronics companies, and with more than 20,000 products it looks like CES 2016 was another record setting show.
