FPGA Camp: High Speed Serial Interfaces - Protocols, IPs & Devices

Starts: Wednesday August 26, 2009 at 5:30pm
Ends: Wednesday August 26, 2009 at 8:00pm
Event Type: Training/Seminar
Region: San Francisco Bay Area
Location: Juniper Networks
1220 N Mathilda Ave

Website: http://www.fpgacentral.com/fpgacamp
Industry: semiconductors
Keywords: Fpga, Cpld, Pc Ie, Interlaken, Xaui
Intended For: FPGA Designers & Managers
Organization:

THE EVENT IS FULL.

If you RSVP now you will be in our waiting list (unfortunately linkedin does not allow us to close the event.)

The idea behind FPGA Camp is to bring engineers together and discuss FPGA, mainly NextGen FPGA technology, application, methodology, best practices and challenges. Also provide a location to meet other local FPGA designers to share their stories.

We are hoping that this would act as a platform to bring all the FPGA users together more often.

Agenda:

5:30 - 6:00 : Registration and demo

6:00 - 7:00 : Tech Talk- "High Speed Serial Interface: Protocols, IPs & Devices"

7:00 - 7:30 : Vendor talk- a brief talks from the vendors offering High Speed Serial Interface devices or IPs. (5 to 10 Mns each).

7:30 - 8:00 : Networking and exhibits

High Speed Serial Interface: Protocols, IPs & Devices

Recent expansion in the video usage and growth in the Internet use have created a demand to move more data faster than ever. To meet this demand, system & chip designers are moving towards high speed serial interfaces such as PCIe, XAUI, Interlaken, XFI, 10GbE etc.

With FPGA devices currently supporting speeds upto ~12.5Gb per IO pair, which makes FPGAs a unique choice for the next design.

This talk will focus on familiarizing people with various protocols (both currently used & emerging), IPs & Devices which can be used to solve the next system problem.

The talk will be followed by quick presentations from some of the vendors offering these solutions (no marketing talk, only technical).

Registration: FREE, Send us a email at fpgacamp@fpgacentral.com to RSVP for the event or RSVP here at LinkedIN.

There is NO ENTRY FEE for users or vendors. Feel free to bring a friend.

Contact us if you would like to: * Volunteer with us * Speak or Refer a speaker * If you are a vendor - Would like to put a booth - Free - Demo/Talk about a product (Tell us what and why)- Free

  • With today's designs implementing high speed SERDES (~10Gbps), DDR2/DDR3, higher board layer counts, higher operating frequencies, and more number of voltage rails there is a need to do Signal and Power Integrity on the board to look at crosstalks, EMI, heat, and Power Distribution Network implementations.
