In a surprising move, ARM has made two Cortex-M cores available for FPGA development at no cost. In the over three decades since [Sophie Wilson] created the first ARM processor design for the Acorn… ...

Madison, Ala. — ARM Ltd. today will announce the Cortex-M1, the first ARM soft core to be designed from the ground up for use in FPGAs. Actel Corp. has signed on as the lead FPGA partner and the first ...

It is equipped with a Xilinx Zynq XC7Z045 or XC7Z100 FPGA which combines a user FPGA with an ARM Core Processor and various on board interfaces including USB 2.0 OTG, Gigabit Ethernet, or ARM JTAG ...

ARM has developed its first processor specifically targeted at FPGAs. The Cortex M1 core takes up less space than the previous ARM7 core already available on Actel FPGAs. This will also be aimed at ...

ARM core licences cost telephone-number sums, ... For developers on Xilinx FPGAs they have extended the offer of those two processor cores at zero cost through their DesignStart Programme.

One test of an FPGA product line has been porting a microprocessor IP core to the chip. CPU cores traditionally have been very challenging objects for programmable logic. They can rely on structures ...

2. Microsemi’s SmartFusion FPGA is based on an Arm Cortex-M3 hard core that uses AMBA AHB. SmartFusion is a natural complement to the hard Cortex-M3 core, which is the basis for a wide range of ...

ARM has for the first time released a soft core for FPGA use to be available with selected Actel products. The processor firm’s cores have been sold as hard macros in FPGAs for some years, however it ...

Intel has started shipping Stratix 10 SX, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) system with an integrated chip based on technology designed by ARM. The device is positioned as a hardware acceleration ...

Programmable logic has been making inroads into many areas which have traditionally been the province of other technologies, such as asics, assps and even microcontrollers. But there has been the ...
