Zurich – QuickLogic, a company from California, is collaborating with the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich (ETH). The aim is to develop energy-efficient, high-performance devices.

The partners will collaborate to integrate QuickLogic's ArcticPro embedded FPGA (eFPGA) technology onto the ETH's PULP platform, with the eFPGA technology enabling hardware acceleration, announced a statement. PULP is an open-source parallel platform for ultra-low power devices.

With the integration of the eFPGA technology onto the PULP platform, the partners aim to develop energy-efficient and high-performance hardware and software systems, added the statement. It could also lead to new options in artificial intelligence (AI).

The ETH is the first licensee of the eFPGA technology designed by the Californian company. QuickLogic describes the ETH as a “renowned technical university”.
