Today's computing systems contain a number of power-hungry components, which promise step performance improvements in demanding applications such as data centres, wired networks, 5G wireless and automotive driver assist systems. |
There is an ongoing battle though, between performance/speed of operation, power consumption, size and the practical considerations of how to efficiently provide power to these components. In the latest Engineers' Insight, Philip Lechner investigates these trade-offs, and how designers can overcome the challenge of powering their FPGAs with new technology. |
