BLT - The FPGA Experts

Confused about the difference between AMD Vivado and Vitis?

This quick breakdown explains what each tool does and where it fits in the AMD development flow for FPGAs and SoCs: https://bltinc.com/2026/05/20/amd-vivado-vs-vitis-ide/

The AMD Spartan UltraScale+ is worth a look if you need cost-optimized, power-efficient FPGAs with serious I/O and PCIe Gen4 capability. Our no-cost workshop will highlight the core capabilities of this newer device from AMD and give you a solid feel for what it can do and where it fits with your designs.

Yesterday, our Technical Director co-presented an AMD SDR Reference Design at the AMD Signal Processing Working Group in Longmont, CO and tonight we're putting it on display. This solution, built on AMD Versal™ adaptive SoCs, eliminates DSP bottlenecks and accelerates software-defined radio development at the tactical edge.

If you're at AMD Partner Night, stop by our table for a live demo. Come see it in action! 🔊📡

As an AMD Premier Partner, the BLT Team was proud to showcase our AMD SDR Reference Design demo at the Embedded Computing Summit DC.

We'll be bringing the same demo to the AMD ECS CO and the AMD SPWG next week. Proven capability. Proven partnership.

Stop rebuilding the same FPGA blocks from scratch on every project. Learn how modular design in Verilog and VHDL lets you write it once and reuse it across many designs. 👉 https://bltinc.com/2026/05/06/modular-design-in-verilog-and-vhdl-how-to-build-reusable-ip/

Will you be at any of these events? Be sure to catch up with our BLT team.

If your program can't afford board respins, you need a PCB partner who gets it right the first time.

Our design process is built around smart, application-specific decision-making. We go beyond simple layout to engineer boards that optimize signal integrity, power delivery, thermal performance, and manufacturability. We deliver boards that work right the first time, every time, and always on budget. That's why we're trusted by some of the biggest names in Aerospace & Defense.

Whether you're starting from scratch or optimizing an existing design, BLT can help.

Is your FPGA design having timing issues? Timing issues are often tied to utilization. The Vivado Utilization Report helps identify where the problem is. In our latest blog post we'll break it down. READ: https://bltinc.com/2026/04/22/understanding-the-vivado-utilization-report/

Turn robotics ideas into working systems faster. This month's webinar dives into the AMD Kria KR260 Robotics Starter Kit, showing how the Kria SOM lets you prototype, control, and iterate on both software and hardware with ease.
