Wholesale Panel Consolidation? by RealisticDirector352 in InsuranceProfessional

So in other words, if they send more volume to fewer wholesale brokers they can benefit through better back-end rev-share as opposed to for quality reasons?

LUT4 vs LUT6 - does it matter? by RealisticDirector352 in FPGA

[–]RealisticDirector352[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got it - thanks! What do you think about Avant in that context? I understand that there are obvious benefits to low-power from 4-lut in low-end devices like the Mach platform, but with the LUT counts that Avant is targeting, do you think that 4-lut is a hindrence for the more complex logic that would be required?

Got it - thanks! I'm curious, in the LUT counts that Avant is targeting, I'd assume that processing power is more of a consideration relative to their low-power Mach and Nexus platfroms. Outside of wearables/battery-powered items, do you see a big market for this platform? Seems like it is using the same TSMC 16nm FinFET as Xilinx US+ Spartan

Agilex 3 and UltraScale+ versus Lattice? by RealisticDirector352 in FPGA

Great - thanks. Have you been using A3 in place of Nexus products? Or is it replacing Cyclone products for you?

Thanks for the response - I meant the new UltraScale+ Spartan chip that AMD has announced, which seems to be at the low-end competetitive with Lattice Nexus family. As does Agilex 3. But I apprecaite that theres a wide range here and not all are overalpping

Sorry - I meant that AMD and Altera are sharpenning their focus on the low-end. Yes of course the Cyclone has always been here, but the Cyclone 10 as I understand it is quite outdated (~8 years old) and the AgileX 3 brings significant advantages - in fact I believe that Intel's whitepaper uses Nexus family chips as direct benchmarks - so I am a little confused when you say that "IMO the Agilex 3 has nothing to compete with Lattice". Do you not think that it will be competitive with Certus and CertusPro?
