HILLSBORO, Ore.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Lattice Semiconductor (NASDAQ: LSCC), the low power programmable leader, today announced its exhibition plan for embedded world 2024. Lattice technology will be on full display throughout the tradeshow with conference sessions on embedded vision, AI, security and functional safety, and connectivity, in addition to a demo-filled booth display. Joined by a strong lineup of innovation partners, Lattice will showcase its latest advancements in FPGA solutions that enable engineers to future-proof their designs for Automotive, Industrial, and Security applications at the Edge.

The Embedded Computing Design editorial staff is pleased to present this year’s embedded world Best-in-Show nominees in the Microcontrollers, Microprocessors, & IP category:

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, the Automotive, Communications, and Industrial markets stand at the forefront of digital transformation. Advanced technologies powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have ushered in a new era of innovation, where technologically advanced vehicles redefine driving experiences, 5G connectivity enables unparalleled processing speeds, and smart manufacturing facilities revolutionize industrial workflows with automation.

On this episode of Embedded Insiders, Paul Fischer, senior principal engineer in the Components Research Department at Intel, discusses the trends and challenges surrounding transistor scaling and backside power. So, ICYMI, these were some of the the top technical research breakthroughs Intel presented this year at IEDM. 

In the golden era of electrical engineering, when yours truly was a budding designer, we worked with a processor, like an 8051 or an 8085, and we wrote some code to go with it. Programmable log? It existed, but those things were too darn expensive for what we called mainstream or mid-range applications. 

Fast forward to today, and you’d be hard pressed to come up with application that doesn’t make use of programmable logic.

In this episode of DevTalk with Rich and Vin, we look at today’s landscape of FPGAs, particularly those that are, in theory, aimed at the mid-range of the market. And we bring in a special guest, Gordon Hands, a Senior Director with Lattice Semiconductor.

We talked about this a little while ago, but it bears mentioning again, especially as a new entrant is being announced. There isn’t much development for FPGAs in the middle of the market. Products aimed at high end, with lots of compute performance are readily available. The same goes for the lower performance, yet much power-reduced, offerings.

Mid-range, general-purpose FPGAs are often chosen over other FPGAs, depending on application-specific requirements, for their versatility, cost-effectiveness, and balanced feature set that allows then to perform efficiently in a wide range of applications.
