Industrial Networks-Xilinx ...
Modern factories are efficient, configurable, and highly automated systems. The critical technology at the heart of the new generation of factories is Industrial Ethernet, which provides deterministic communication across networked devices in the system. The high performance logic in Spartan-6 FPGAs enables designers to implement low latency Industrial Ethernet switches that ensure deterministic communication even while the number of nodes on the network grows. The programmable logic also allows designers to integrate motor control, safety, and interfaces to legacy communication standards all onto one chip for the smallest form factor hardware possible.

Solution Summary and Benefits
Integrate communication and high performance motor control onto one chip
Programmable logic allows multiple protocols to be implemented on the same hardware platform
High performance logic enables low latency Ethernet switches
15X motor control loop time reduction compared to typical MCUs
High efficiency motor control algorithms help reduce cost of motor and noise filters
Reduce system power with more efficient control

STMicroelectronics Upgrades...
STMicroelectronics has introduced a world-first automotive satellite-navigation chip that delivers high-quality position data needed by advanced driving systems. The STA8135GA is the first automotive-qualified GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) receiver to integrate a triple-band positioning measurement engine on-chip, in addition to standard multi-band Position-Velocity-Time (PVT) and dead-reckoning. Triple band has historically been used in professional applications such as surveying, mapping, and precision agriculture that demand millimeter accuracy with minimal reliance on correction data. Until now only available in chipsets or modules, which are typically larger and more expensive than ST’s single-chip solution, triple-band enables the receiver to efficiently acquire and track the largest number of satellites in multiple constellations simultaneously for superior performance in difficult conditions such as in urban canyons and under tree cover.

Vehicle Networking and Conn...
Xilinx Automotive platforms eliminate the need for expensive, complex wiring with robust support for multiple in-vehicle networking standards including:, EAVB, CAN and API.
The Xilinx Automotive Infotainment Companion Chip Platform provides flexible interfacing and is optimized to complement existing or preferred host processors. Available IP and software enables rapid extension of system interfaces, peripherals or processing with minimal development effort. Various popular host processor interfaces are supported and can be changed quickly based on host availability and overall bandwidth required.
Industry-leading FPGAs act independently as a complete system-on-chip, or as a companion chip to an ASSP, microcontroller, or DSP device. Integrating vehicle network connections with audio/video processing acceleration or graphics subsystems on a single Xilinx platform creates a cost-effective, application-specific solution.

Integrated PCI Express® compliant blocks for chip-to-chip communication
Scalability to address multiple feature classes across automotive lines
Flexibility to upgrade features and functionality as new networking standards emerge
Tailored IP for automotive-specific functions
Reference designs and multiple host processor interface
