FPGA Design Engineering

Design AND Verification 

Louder Solutions has been providing FPGA design and verification services to companies and universities for many years.  With over 25 years of FPGA design experience, I can provide everything you need for a complete commercial FPGA implementation that your customers can rely on:
 

  • Requirements specification

  • Part selection

  • RTL design

  • IP integration

  • Timing constraints

  • Emissions mitigation

  • Verification plans

  • Simulation regression testing

  • Design documentation

Project Rescue

Already have a design that isn't quite up to snuff? Louder Solutions is an expert in design forensics and rescue to convert unreliable designs into robust commercial-ready products through:
 

  • Robustness analysis
  • Code refactoring
  • Timing constraint reviews and updates
  • Clock domain crossing analysis and mitigation
  • Simulation regression testing
  • Code coverage analysis
  • Version change documentation

Vendor Expertise

Specializing in Xilinx/AMD and Altera (previously Intel) devices and tools including:

  • Altera Quartus
  • Xilinx Vivado
  • Xilinx ISE

 

Expertise in numerous third party tools:

  • Simulation and Code Coverage (e.g. Questa, Riviera Pro)
  • CDC (e.g. Mentor 0-in, Synopsys SpyGlass)

 

Need help reducing your licensing (or other) costs?  I can help identify alternative vendors, licensing options and process improvements to significantly reduce your carrying costs.

Engagement

I am eager to engage on projects that pose challenging problems - complex timing or CDC issues, bad code, outdated parts/tools or neglected version control as examples.  I have successfully designed FPGAs for many application domains, so if you need someone that can quickly come up to speed on your application and immediately offer value and produce results, let's talk!
