Problem
Developing high-performance FPGA accelerators is often hindered by long compilation times and limitations in achievable operating frequencies, increasing development costs and time-to-market. Existing FPGA design flows can lead to wasted developer hours and suboptimal performance.
Solution
RapidStream offers a compilation flow optimization tool that significantly reduces FPGA compilation times and improves operating frequencies. The RapidStream Composer integrates with existing high-level synthesis (HLS) and register-transfer level (RTL) design flows, enabling engineers to rapidly transform algorithms into high-performance FPGA accelerators. This allows for faster deployment of FPGA-based solutions and quicker iteration on designs.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes FPGA design engineers and researchers in high-performance computing, telecommunications, and finance, particularly those involved in high-frequency trading (HFT).
Features
- Up to 10X faster compilation times for large FPGA designs
- Up to 2X increase in operating frequency
- Seamless integration with mainstream HLS and RTL design flows
- Comprehensive compilation toolchain for transforming trading strategies into ultra-low-latency FPGA accelerators
