22nm Tri-Gate Process Should Bring Rewards

by Kevin Morris

We all knew it was coming, but Tabula “officially” announced this week that they are producing their next yet-to-be-announced family of FPGAs on Intel’s 22nm Tri-Gate process. As one of the worst-kept secrets in the programmable logic industry, the Intel-Tabula relationship hardly comes as a surprise. The announcement was widely leaked about a year ago when Achronix formally announced a similar relationship with Intel.

Is EDA after our brains? Has the industry died, but failed to fall down? Or, is there a pending resurgence of EDA given the extreme challenges of today's ultra-complex high-speed designs?
