Engineers Offered Smart Fusion Heads-Up by Avnet Memec

Avnet Memec has lined up a series of free, hands-on SmartFusion engineering workshops in partnership with Actel in the UK. 

The new SmartFusion product family from Actel is the world’s first intelligent mixed-signal FPGA to integrate an ARM Cortex-M3 processor and programmable analogue.

The workshops will be based around the SmartFusion Evaluation Kit and offers embedded engineers a true technical hands-on experience covering the FPGA fabric, ARM® Cortex-M3 processor and the Microcontroller Subsystem (MSS).  Each of the Speedway workshops will also cover programmable analogue, with the key benefits of the analogue compute engine (ACE) and the free Actel Libero, and soft-consol tools.

Two football grounds feature in the venues, no doubt the omission of the Den, home to promotion chasers Millwall is an oversight! Instead the venues and dates are April 22 at the  Madejski Stadium, Reading, April 27 at the  Heritage Motor Museum, Gaydon, Warwickshire and  April 29 at some place called Manchester United Old Trafford Stadium.
