X-fest is a global series of technical seminars offering practical, how-to training for FPGA, DSP and embedded systems designers. The event is a unique multi-manufacturer collaboration that features an entire ecosystem of providers showcasing the latest design solutions.


See new PSoC technology in three sessions:

  • Designing Products for the Human Experience
Learn how to design an elegant, reliable touch-sensing interface. Explore ways to differentiate a product with low- cost, custom segment LCDs. Take advantage of low-cost USB interfaces to connect a system to a host PC. See how to save power and cost through clever design techniques employed on the new Xilinx Spartan-6 LX16 platform designed by Avnet.
  • Interfacing to an Analog World
Learn how to process multiple sensor input signals. See the critical effects that filtering and amplification can have on low level signals. Understand the design considerations around analog resolution, sampling speeds and converter topologies. Explore methods for interfacing and processing sensor input at the FPGA.
  • Powering Xilinx Virtex®-6 and Spartan®-6
Understand the key requirements of powering the Virtex-6 and Spartan-6 FPGAs. Learn various techniques in designing a very low power Spartan-6 based system. See the design trade-offs involved in using linear regulators, switchers and integrated modules.
