FPGA-to-PCB System Designs Optimizing the Process

摘要

Integration of FPGAs onto system designs used to follow the traditional, "black box" process for silicon devices. PCB designers ignored the contents of the device and its package, and just worried about how it would fit on a schematic sheet and on the board layout. The increased functionality and density of todays FPGAs, coupled with escalating system performance requirements, is driving a new design paradigm. FPGA and PCB designers must now collaborate continuously throughout the design process.
