Overview

The logi3D graphics accelerator IP core is specifically designed for the new Xilinx Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC. Designers can add attractive 3D graphics, including advanced Graphical User Interfaces (GUI), to their Xilinx Zynq-7000 AP SoC design by combining the logi3D with their application specific IP cores in a plug-and-play manner. The IP core is designed to support the OpenGL ES 1.1. API*. Linux and Windows Embedded Compact 7 are the currently supported operating system, with support for Android planned for 4Q2012. Due to its AMBA AXI4 interface compliance the logi3D IP core can also be implemented on Xilinx 7 Series and other Xilinx FPGA families as a Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) in various ASSP plus FPGA combinations.

* Product is based on a published Khronos specification, and is expected to pass the Khronos Conformance Testing Process. Current conformance status can be found at www.khronos.org/conformance.

Tape-out Risk in the Age of Edge AI: The Case for GPU IP

A full SoC tape-out at 5nm approaches $400M in fully loaded, non-recurring engineering and mask costs. At 3nm, estimates push past $600M. Every IP block on that die is a commitment to a set of assumptions about what the silicon will need to do. In AI, those assumptions have a shorter shelf life than they used to.

What Does a GPU Have to Do With Automotive Security?

The automotive industry is undergoing the most significant transformation since the advent of electronics in cars. Vehicles are becoming software-defined, connected, AI-driven, and continuously updated. This evolution brings extraordinary new capability – but it also brings greater levels of cybersecurity and functional-safety risks.

How Alternate Geometry Processing Enables Better Multi-Core GPU Scaling

Scaling GPU performance across multiple cores sounds simple in theory: add more cores, get more performance. In practice, it’s one of the toughest challenges in graphics architecture. While some workloads scale well thanks to their independent nature, some workloads, especially geometry processing, introduce order dependencies that make linear performance scaling a tricky problem to solve for every GPU architecture in the industry.
