Folks,
1st event FPGACamp (http://www.fpgacentral.com/fpgacamp) is coming up on
Aug'26 at Silicon Valley, CA. The topic of the event is " High Speed
Serial Interfaces - Protocols, IPs & Devices". The event is going to be
vendor neutral & Technical.
I am here looking for speakers / recommendation for speakers. We would
like to have a segment about : what FPGA designers & board designers
should know to minimize the SI risk including termination, layout
guidelines, power supply & lab bringup (may be list few challenges in
bring-up, and tools to debug).
We certainly would like to stay vendor neutral, so we need someone who
is not part of one of the vendors.
The admission & booths are completely FREE, so rest of the folks
interested in attending/ setting up a booth RSVP at
http://www.fpgacentral.com/fpgacamp or
http://events.linkedin.com/FPGA-Camp-High-Speed-Serial-Interfaces/pub/10

Attaching the event details for quick reference:
===========================
The idea behind FPGA Camp is to bring engineers together and discuss
FPGA, mainly NextGen FPGA technology, application, methodology, best
practices and challenges. Also provide a location to meet other local
FPGA designers to share their stories.
We are hoping that this would act as a platform to bring all the FPGA
users together more often.
Agenda:
5:30 - 6:00 : Registration and demo
6:00 - 7:00 : Tech Talk- "High Speed Serial Interface: Protocols, IPs &
Devices"
7:00 - 7:30 : Vendor talk- a brief talks from the vendors offering High
Speed Serial Interface devices or IPs. (5 to 10 Mns each).
7:30 - 8:00 : Networking and exhibits
"High Speed Serial Interface: Protocols, IPs & Devices"
Recent expansion in the video usage and growth in the Internet use have
created a demand to move more data faster than ever. To meet this
demand, system & chip designers are moving towards high speed serial
interfaces such as PCIe, XAUI, Interlaken, XFI, 10GbE etc. With FPGA
devices currently supporting speeds upto ~12.5Gb per IO pair, which
makes FPGAs a unique choice for the next design.
This talk will focus on familiarizing people with various protocols
(both currently used & emerging), IPs & Devices which can be used to
solve the next system problem.
The talk will be followed by quick presentations from some of the
vendors offering these solutions (no marketing talk, only technical).
===============================
Thanks,
Vikash
