Mercury SA1 Altera® Cylcone® V SoC Module in production

The Mercury FPGA module family is growing - the Mercury SA1 system-on-chip (SoC) module has just entered production. It combines Altera's Cyclone V ARM Processor-based SoC FPGA with fast DDR3 SDRAM, quad SPI flash, a Gigabit Ethernet PHY and an RTC and thus forms a high-performance embedded processing solution, combining the flexibility of a CPU system with the raw, real-time parallel processing power of an FPGA. more

Martin speaks to Embedded News

At Embedded World 2014, Embedded News interviewed Martin about FPGA Manager, the Internet of Things, our Profinet RT/IRT Device Solution, our new products, and (albeit briefly) Angry Birds - click play to hear where the conversation went.

Enclustra at All Programmable PLC2 Days 2014

All Programmable PLC2 Days 2014 takes place between the 20th and 22nd of May 2014 in Stuttgart; Enclustra's Martin Heimlicher will be speaking about FPGA Manager, our comprehensive solution for communicating between host PC and FPGA over a number of protocols with one simple API. A schedule for all 3 days of the event and further information can be found on the official website.

Zynq design from scratch

The Mars ZX3 SoC module was the first commercially available Xilinx Zynq-based off-the-shelf board. Together with the Mars PM3 base board it builds an attractive and flexible development solution witch also provides an easy path for production volumes even for industrial temperature range applications. In his blog Zynq design from scratch Sven Andersson gives a sneak peak at this interesting solution. Click through for an interesting read.

Profinet IRT Core on Zynq in action

Enclustra, in collaboration with Xilinx and InES Institute of Embedded Systems of the School of Engineering, presented the new Profinet RT/IRT Device Solution at SPS/IPC/Drives 2014. In case you missed it, get up to speed with the advanced capabilities of Profinet with Professor Hans Doran here.
