What if tomorrow's FPGA design could be built better and quicker, with time left over to add in features that wouldn't even have been attempted if the design engineers had to spend their time writing yet another variant of their UART?
When building the next FPGA project, the key to harnessing tomorrow's cutting-edge technology today is to use a COTS FPGA framework that provides portable, reconfigurable and reusable FPGA components.
A COTS FPGA framework can be like the iconic DeLorean DMC-12 from "Back to the Future", speeding up the design process to 88 mph so that the design engineer is transported back in time to find that the FPGA is already stocked with a fully validated project including data planes, control planes and physical interfaces for all board-level I/O communications and external memory.
