In 2025, a low-key yet monumental invention in the semiconductor industry—FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array)—will celebrate its fortieth anniversary. This is not just a milestone in time, but rather a dramatic historical metaphor. In this special year of turning forty, the two giants that once dominated the FPGA market for decades, Xilinx and Altera, after … Read more
Forty years ago, Xilinx introduced a revolutionary device that allowed engineers to use logic programming right at their desks. The Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) developed by Xilinx enabled engineers to download bitstreams with custom logic to desktop programmers for immediate execution, eliminating the weeks of waiting for chips to return from the foundry. If … Read more
Why is it called “Xilinx HLS”? It is said that Altera’s HLS is somewhat different. 1 HLS Design The names of Xilinx’s HLS tools vary; I recall “Vivado HLS” and “Vitis HLS”. The version of the tool I used is 2024.2, and this version of the HLS tool is called “Vitis”. Vitis 2024.2 is a … Read more
For Xilinx, the world’s largest FPGA manufacturer, 2018 can be seen as a new starting point. On January 29 of this year, Xilinx welcomed its fourth CEO, Victor Peng, a veteran with ten years at Xilinx and extensive experience in CPU, GPU, and FPGA. More importantly, Xilinx has also embraced a new development strategy, particularly … Read more

Introduction During the FPGA development process, it is common to encounter situations where data needs to be cached for later use. Typically, there are two solutions: RAM and FIFO. However, using FIFO has two limitations: There is a fixed delay of at least 3 clock cycles between FIFO output and input, and it cannot be … Read more
