  • PCI Express SIG Compliance Overview for Lattice Semiconductor Fpgas
    PCI Express SIG Compliance Overview for Lattice Semiconductor FPGAs August 2007 Technical Note TN1166 Introduction The PCI Express compliance testing is offered by the PCI Special Interest Group (PCI SIG). The Compliance Workshop Program offers standardized device testing and comprehensive criteria for PCI Express systems, peripherals, and components. The program provides FPGA manufacturers the opportunity to test a SERDES- based FPGA and the needed Intellectual Property (IP) on a compliant add-in card with other members’ PCI Express products. This forum allows for the delivery of devices and IP that are compliant with PCI Express stan- dards. Successful completion of PCI Express compliance testing provides our customers with a level of confidence when using Lattice’s FPGAs to build PCI Express solutions. It assists FPGA designers to achieve interoperability while minimizing risk and reducing time to market in designs that use complex, high performance PCI Express interfaces with Lattice FPGAs. The PCI SIG Compliance Program, which is open to all members of the PCI SIG, is a voluntary compliance pro- gram. Testing is completed to insure devices meet the PCI SIG specifications and provides a vehicle to test with many other manufacturers of PCI Express products. The goal is to promote the development of high-quality prod- ucts that offer reliable and hassle-free operation. Device manufacturers use the PCI SIG as a means to ultimately be included on the PCI SIG Integrators List. Prod- ucts that implement PCI SIG technologies and are referenced on the Integrators List show that they fulfill the strin- gent requirements and will provide a robust solution.

  • Agood Forty Years
    Agood forty years... No trumpets blew when Dave Packard and Bill Hewlett walked up to receive their 40th year service awards from John Young on December 18. A few reminis­ cences and they turned to the business at hand: passing out 25·, 30- and 35-year I awards to other HP veterans gathered for the annual Bay Area awards luncheon. Of course, technically speaking, these weren't even the first 40-year awards handed out at Hewlett-Packard- that honor had already gone to a handful of Waltham Division employees who were credited with years spent working for a venerable acquisition, the Sanborn Company. And yet, those 40-year awards to Dave and Bill last month were clearly something quite special in the history of the company they founded four decades ago. For a few minutes the co-founders thought back to those early days in Palo Alto when they were beginning to build devices in a garage workshop during Dave Packard and Bill Hewlett mark 40 years 01 Hewlett-Packard service with a handshake. The ollicial starting date 01 the company's co-launders was January 1,1939. spare hours sandwiched between graduate study and work at Stanford University. The idea of having their own com­ pany had occurred to the young men five years earlier when they were engineering undergraduates together at Stanford. By the end of 1938 they were halfway to that goal-Dave Packard and his wife Lucile living in an apartment in downtown Palo Cover: After receiving their 40-year Alto, Bill Hewlett batching in a cottage service awards last month, HP founders Dave Packard (left) and Bill Hewlett (right) looked over some photographs of the company's earlier days.
