CRUVI FPGA Card
The CRUVI FPGA Card is a daughter card standard of Standardization Group for Embedded Technologies e.V. (SGET) specifically tailored to the needs of FPGAs. file:CRUVI Logo.png, CRUVI FPGA Card Logo Background The expansion bus interface is designed to create an open ecosystem of function modules for high-performance peripheral connectivity. Its main focus is on supporting FPGA and FPGA System on a chip, SoC devices from all major manufacturers like Altera, Lattice Semiconductor, Lattice, Microchip Technology, Microchip and Xilinx. The word "CRUVI" is a combination of the Estonian word "KRUVI" for screw and the letter "C", which refers to the half of the hexagonal screw head. In this case, the "K" was replaced with "C" to emphasize the reference to the screw head. Overview It can be used to build high performance prototypes, for system integration and testing to build complex systems from smaller building blocks to iterate quickly and reduce cost. Create custom test systems for produ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
FPGA
A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is a type of configurable integrated circuit that can be repeatedly programmed after manufacturing. FPGAs are a subset of logic devices referred to as programmable logic devices (PLDs). They consist of an array of programmable logic device, programmable logic block, logic blocks with a connecting grid, that can be configured "in the field" to interconnect with other logic blocks to perform various digital functions. FPGAs are often used in limited (low) quantity production of custom-made products, and in research and development, where the higher cost of individual FPGAs is not as important, and where creating and manufacturing a custom circuit would not be feasible. Other applications for FPGAs include the telecommunications, automotive, aerospace, and industrial sectors, which benefit from their flexibility, high signal processing speed, and parallel processing abilities. A FPGA configuration is generally written using a hardware descr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
EMMC
MultiMediaCard, officially abbreviated as MMC, is a memory card standard used for solid-state storage. Unveiled in 1997 by SanDisk and Siemens, MMC is based on a surface-contact low-pin-count serial interface using a single memory stack substrate assembly, and is therefore much smaller than earlier systems based on high-pin-count parallel interfaces using traditional surface-mount assembly such as CompactFlash. Both products were initially introduced using SanDisk NOR-based flash technology. MMC is about the size of a postage stamp: 32 mm × 24 mm × 1.4 mm. MMC originally used a 1- bit serial interface, but newer versions of the specification allow transfers of 4 or 8 bits at a time. MMC can be used in many devices that can use Secure Digital (SD) cards. MMCs may be available in sizes up to 16 gigabytes (GB). They are used in almost every context in which memory cards are used, like cellular phones, digital audio players, digital cameras, and PDA ...

MEMS
MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) is the technology of microscopic devices incorporating both electronic and moving parts. MEMS are made up of components between 1 and 100 micrometres in size (i.e., 0.001 to 0.1 mm), and MEMS devices generally range in size from 20 micrometres to a millimetre (i.e., 0.02 to 1.0 mm), although components arranged in arrays (e.g., digital micromirror devices) can be more than 1000 mm2. They usually consist of a central unit that processes data (an integrated circuit chip such as microprocessor) and several components that interact with the surroundings (such as microsensors). Because of the large surface area to volume ratio of MEMS, forces produced by ambient electromagnetism (e.g., electrostatic charges and magnetic moments), and fluid dynamics (e.g., surface tension and viscosity) are more important design considerations than with larger scale mechanical devices. MEMS technology is distinguished from molecular nanotechnolo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Pulse-density Modulation
Pulse-density modulation (PDM) is a form of modulation used to represent an analog signal with a binary signal. In a PDM signal, specific amplitude values are not encoded into codewords of pulses of different weight as they would be in pulse-code modulation (PCM); rather, the relative density of the pulses corresponds to the analog signal's amplitude. The output of a 1-bit DAC is the same as the PDM encoding of the signal. Description In a pulse-density modulation bitstream, a 1 corresponds to a pulse of positive polarity (+''A''), and a 0 corresponds to a pulse of negative polarity (−''A''). Mathematically, this can be represented as : x = -A (-1)^, where ''x'' 'n''is the bipolar bitstream (either −''A'' or +''A''), and ''a'' 'n''is the corresponding binary bitstream (either 0 or 1). A run consisting of all 1s would correspond to the maximum (positive) amplitude value, all 0s would correspond to the minimum (negative) amplitude value, and alternating 1s and 0s wou ...

I3C (bus)
I3C, also known as SenseWire, is a specifications, specification to enable communication between Integrated circuit, computer chips by defining the electrical connection between the chips and signaling patterns to be used. Short for Improved Inter-Integrated Circuit, the standard defines the electrical connection between the chips to be a two wire, shared (multidrop bus, multidrop), serial communication, serial data bus (computing), bus, one wire (SCL) being used as a clock to define the sampling times, the other wire (SDA) being used as a data line whose voltage can be sampled. The standard defines a signaling protocol in which multiple chips can control communication and thereby act as the bus controller. The I3C specification takes its name from, uses the same electrical connections as, and allows some backward compatibility with, the I²C bus, a de facto technical standard, standard for inter-chip communication, widely used for low-speed peripherals and sensors in computer ...
