This is one of the boards I have been waiting to get my hands on for a long time: the Tria VE2302 development kit. This is the development kit for the Tria VE2302 SoM and provides developers with four 22-pin MIPI CSI / DSI connectors, two zSFP connectors, HDMI Tx and Rx, along with Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 ports. There is also a TXR2 interface which is capable of being operated with some SYZYGY / ZMod boards, as we will see in future blogs. The board also provides USB UART, JTAG...

Programmable logic is very powerful in our solutions. We can perform complex image and signal processing and even accelerate machine learning by leveraging it. Of course, programmable logic started out as simple glue logic, providing basic processing or interface expansion, and there is still often a need for these capabilities in many applications. A while ago, we looked at the Renesas ForgeFPGA, which provided designers with 1K lookup tables, on-board oscillator, and the ability to...

Over the last few months, it has become apparent that DRAM is increasing in price and becoming harder to source. This is especially true in the consumer market, driven in part by increased demand from AI workloads. We tend to think of using the latest generation, which currently means DDR5 or LPDDR5. DDR5 has some interesting architectural changes, which enable increased bandwidth, much faster transfer rates, and higher device densities. For example, DDR5 DIMMs are effectively split into two...
