Avnet Electronics Marketing Launches SpeedWay Design Workshop Series Featuring High-Speed Interfaces for Lattice FPGAs.PHOENIX -- Avnet Electronics Marketing, a division of Avnet, Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : AVT AVT avian arginine vasotocin. See vasotocin. ), and Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : LSCC LSCC Lake-Sumter Community College (Florida) LSCC Lattice Semiconductor Corporation (stock symbol) LSCC Lawson State Community College (Alabama) ) announce a new workshop series featuring high-speed interfaces for Lattice's latest series of FPGAs. Designers, developers and engineers interested in leveraging the latest high-speed interface technologies with FPGAs can get hands-on experience by attending the Avnet Lattice High Speed Interface SpeedWay Design Workshops, scheduled to begin September 18, 2007, in locations throughout the U.S. and in Canada. Avnet's factory-trained field applications engineers (FAEs) have developed materials for the full day SpeedWay Workshops with support from Lattice's applications engineers. Based on practical experience and the latest technologies that highlight proven design techniques, attendees will leave these workshops armed with design knowledge and information that can be applied immediately to current projects. The workshop agenda includes: -- SERDES See serializer/deserializer. 101 -- Labs - ispLever Introduction, ipExpress Introduction, SERDES IP and SERDES Demonstration -- PCI-e Architecture -- PCI-e Design Considerations -- Lab - PCI-e IP and PCI-e Demonstration -- DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory 2 Design Considerations -- Lab - DDR2 IP and DDR2 Demonstration "Designing with high-speed technologies can be a real challenge - especially when used in conjunction with FPGAs. The Lattice SpeedWay workshops provide practical information and proven solutions that help engineers solve their design challenges and expedite the design process," said Jeff Ittel, senior vice president of semiconductors for Avnet Electronics Marketing Americas. "This is a must-attend event for designers who are looking to incorporate high-speed interfaces into their next design." "Avnet's highly skilled field applications resources are an essential part of our customer support. The SpeedWay Design Workshops demonstrate Avnet's capability to deliver essential technology support across our leading-edge FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) A type of gate array that is programmed in the field rather than in a semiconductor fab. Containing up to hundreds of thousands of gates, there are a variety of FPGA architectures on the market. families," said Ed Markiewicz, vice president of North American North American named after North America.
