Using high level synthesis, a design team can implement and verify more functionality in hardware in less time than required for RTL design. This makes it feasible to move system functionality from software into dedicated hardware, reducing the number of instruction fetches and lowering required CPU clock speeds for significant system-level power savings.

In light of HDMI's widespread emergence and popularity, why are more than 180 computer and consumer electronics companies--and counting--actively supporting DisplayPort, another audio/video interface standard?

Vehicle manufacturers are now relying on simulation-based development methodologies to enable early validation of power network quality.

The message of John Cohn and others who promote the field of engineering is important right now, not just for attracting bright young minds to the profession but also in reminding practicing engineers why they got into it in the first place.

There are two fundamentally different resistor topologies for sensing current, each with unique attributes to match to your application requirements

QoS is much discussed for video on demand, IPTV, and other applications, but getting control over it requires multiple sub-system level QoS management techniques, including shaping, categorizing, weighting and queuing.

The shortage of FPGA engineers is leading many companies to outsource FPGA development. Outsourcing has many benefits, but it also carries risks. Here are ten questions to consider before outsourcing.

Here is the final excerpt from Mobile TV: DVB-H, DMB, 3G Systems and Rich Media Applications. This multi-part series stems from Chapter 13--Handsets for Mobile TV and Multimedia Services, and this segment covers integrating phone features Wi-LAN and Bluetooth, and more.

Swiss researchers are claiming a 1,000-fold decrease in MEMS oscillator power consumption.

THALES has used CoFluent Studio to model an 802.16 modem using the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) modulation techniques to identify adaptations that improve the robustness of the links and/or the output data rate.

Intel is studying optical interconnects with an eye toward replacing chip-to-chip electrical interconnects in order to overcome looming bandwidth issues as the proliferation of chips with an increasing number of cores ushers in the era of tera-scale computing.
