Title Description Version Released Date Document File Enabling the Next
Generation of 5G Platforms (WP029)
Radio access networks (RANs) and associated core network hierarchy, which link
end-user equipment to both the central telecom network and the cloud, are
essential in building ubiquitous cellular connectivity to expand the number and
breadth of use cases that can be supported by the technology. This paper
outlines the current status of 5G standards and rollout, summarizes the new use
cases 5G RANs need to support and examines the standards evolution to support
higher bandwidth and additional use cases. Finally, it also explains how
Achronix FPGA technology can be utilized by developers to meet the fundamental
challenge facing them.
1.0 02/18/2022 Download The Achronix Integrated 2D NoC Enables High-Bandwidth
Designs (WP028)
Devices aimed at addressing modern algorithm acceleration workloads must be able
to efficiently move high-bandwidth data streams between high-speed interfaces
and throughout the device. Achronix Speedster®7t FPGAs can process these
high-bandwidth data streams via an integrated new and highly innovative
two-dimensional network on chip (2D NoC). This white paper discusses two methods
of implementing a 2D NoC and presents an example design to show how the Achronix
2D NoC improves performance, reduces area, and reduces design time when compared
to a soft 2D NoC implementation.
1.0 02/02/2022 Download Achronix FPGAs Optimize AI in Industry 4.0 and 5.0
(WP027)
Industry has come a long way over in the last three hundred years. Machines were
first introduced in the 1700s, mainly water and steam driven, introducing the
Industrial Revolution in the late 1700s. Automation and computer technology
would enter the picture in the late 1960's, paving the way for the eventual
automation, artificial intelligence (AI) and networked solutions of today.
Although it might appear that humans are no longer in the picture, Industry 5.0
is bringing us full circle by combining the precision and efficiency of robotic
systems, driven largely by AI, with the ingenuity and real-time thought of the
human mind — all leading to more optimal manufacturing environments.
1.0 12/21/2021 Download FPGAs and eFPGAs Accelerate ML Inference at the Edge
(WP026)
With the rapid proliferation of Internet-of-Things (IoT) and billions of
connected devices, there is a paradigm shift taking place where big data is not
only being processed in the core data center but also at the network edge. Field
Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs), sitting at the intersection of performance and
flexibility, are a promising solution for deep learning edge inference
applications.
1.0 05/05/2021 Download Data Orchestration Supports the Next Advance in AI
(WP025)
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies now power a
rapidly expanding range of product and applications from deeply embedded systems
to hyperscale data-center deployments. Although there is a huge degree of
diversity in the hardware designs supporting these applications, all require
hardware acceleration. Data orchestration encompasses the pre- and
post-processing operations that ensure the data seen by a machine learning
engine arrives at an optimal speed and in the most suitable form for efficient
processing.

Migrating to Achronix FPGA Technology (AN023)
Many users transitioning to Achronix FPGA technology will be familiar with
existing FPGA solutions from other vendors. Although Achronix technology and
tools are similar to existing FPGA technology and tools, there are some
differences. Understanding these differences are needed to achieve the very best
performance and quality of results (QoR).
