PR Log (Press Release) –
Oct 14, 2009 – There are two distinct phases in bringing an FPGA system to market: the design phase and the debug and verification phase. The primary tasks in the design phase are entry, simulation, and implementation. The primary tasks in the Debug and Verification phase are to validate the design and correct any bugs found.
The recent advancements in FPGA densities have changed the way we think of design & debug of a FPGA. This camp will focus on what can you do as an engineer to make debugging your FPGA a science rather then an art. It will also introduce to you various tools that you can use to shorten the debug cycle.
Agenda: Tentative
5:00 PM - 6:00 PM: Registration and exhibits (booths from various vendors)
6:00 PM - 6:10 PM: Introductions
6:10 PM - 6:40 PM: The state of FPGA Validation & Debugging
6:40 PM - 7:30 PM: Eric Bogatin: How the board will screw up your beautiful transceiver signals, and what you can do about it
7:30 PM - 8:20 PM: A brief talks from the vendors about their debug tools and solutions & Vendor Talk
8:20 PM - 8:30 PM: TBD (By Mentor Graphics)
8:30 PM - 9:00 PM: Networking and exhibits (booths from various vendors)

FPGA Central is an online community which brings the FPGA users & FPGA Vendors together. It is the first and largest web resource devoted to FPGA Industry.
FPGA Central is created to provide a central place for FPGA Vendors & Users to share experiences and information about FPGA Design, Development, Verification, Validation, Process, Tools and Products. This site is created to educate and promote FPGA Technologies around the world by gathering, documenting and sharing information.
FPGA Central is free FPGA portal that summarizes the vendor companies, their IPs, Products and EDA Tools that make up this marketplace, and organizes the content of major chip companies and third party vendors into more searchable format. FPGA Central also takes pride in being Vendor neutral, providing the end users with the best unbiased information about FPGAs.
