Embedded SoC designs are in most of the fast-growing new products. Consumers want intelligence in their handheld devices. The proliferation of complex communication protocols requires that devices be ...

Much has been written about the rise of field-programmable-gate-array (FPGA) -based platforms over application-specific-integrated-circuit (ASIC) implementations. During the last few years, FPGAs have ...

Aptix Corp. (San Jose, Calif.) and ARC Cores (Elstree, England) have teamed up to configure a prototyping and verification environment for design groups creating ARC-based systems-on-chip. The package ...

X-Energy announced the completion of a Reactor Protection System (RPS) prototype, a key safety feature of the company’s Xe-100 small modular nuclear reactor. The prototype utilizes Paragon’s highly ...

Field-programmable gate-array (FPGA) use can be divided into three categories. At the low end is programmable logic that can handle simple decoding and translation chores. At the high end are large ...

If your department is in a high-growth area or in need of replacing numerous fire stations, one approach to developing multiple fire stations is using a prototype fire station design process. Often, ...

General Atomics Electromagnetic Systems is designing a prototype weather satellite for the U.S. Space Force. The Space Force Space and Missile Systems Center awarded Other Transaction Authority ...

Students in RIT’s Multidisciplinary Senior Design program are building a robotic model of a dinosaur tail and sustainable water systems for developing countries. They are developing a training system ...

Something that becomes abundantly clear as you progress through the senior design project is that an idea “on paper” often does not fully translate physically in the prototyping phase. Because at this ...
