Combining instructor-led courses with hands-on workshops, these full or half-day technical sessions feature a range of topics designed to teach engineers everything from the basics of FPGA design to best-practices for integrating Xilinx’s MicroBlaze soft processor core. Taught by Avnet’s technical specialists, these courses are geared towards engineers at all levels including: designers who are new to FPGAs; those looking to enhance or update their capabilities with Xilinx’s suite of development tools; and those looking to implement embedded processing designs using Xilinx’s Software Development Kit (SDK) environment or the AMBA 4 Advanced Extensible Interface (AXI4).

The seminars are free to attend and attendees will receive special offers on the Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGA LX9 MicroBoard and Xilinx’s EDK software.

Available courses and dates can be viewed at the SpeedWay website.
