FPGA DESIGN

FPGA design services

From RTL design and verification to imaging and networking IP cores and products built on FPGA modules — including redundancy and time synchronization for industrial Ethernet (HSR/PRP, TSN).

HOME / SERVICES / FPGA design

Positive ONE offers FPGA design services from specification, RTL design, simulation and on-hardware verification to IP core integration and the firmware and drivers around the FPGA — including industrial Ethernet (HSR/PRP, TSN).

SCOPE

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What FPGA design work do you cover?

Specification, RTL design, simulation, on-hardware verification, IP core integration, and the firmware, BSPs and device drivers that work with the FPGA.

Do you provide industrial Ethernet IP such as HSR/PRP and TSN?

Yes. We handle imaging and networking IP cores, including industrial Ethernet IP for HSR/PRP, TSN and PTP time synchronization.

Which FPGA devices and modules do you use?

We use FPGA modules and FMC cards with AMD (Xilinx) Zynq, Artix and other devices to shorten development, and you can consult us from the FPGA selection stage.

What information do you need for a quotation?

Whatever you know of the items listed under “What to tell us before a consultation or quotation” is enough to start. You can contact us before the FPGA has been selected.
