BittWare, a Molex company, is headquartered in Concord NH, with a design and support center in the United Kingdom. The BittWare brand and operations incorporate products by Nallatech, based in Camarillo CA.
BittWare designs and manufactures the world’s most powerful FPGA cards for hardware, compute, network, and storage acceleration using Intel and Xilinx FPGAs, as well as the TeraBox ultra high-performance FPGA server platform. These FPGA accelerators are used for Network and Packet Processing (NPP), High Performance Computing (HPC), and Signal Processing (SP), in cybersecurity, high frequency trading, surveillance, and data acquisition applications.
BittWare’s PCI Express 8 and 16 lane boards feature Intel’s high-end Stratix 10 and Arria 10 FPGAs, and Xilinx UltraScale and UltraScale+ FPGAs for maximum performance and highest development productivity.
BittWare FPGA Server Solutions integrate the exclusive TeraBox line and specialized solutions from LDA Technologies and other server vendors.
BittWare storage solutions meet the demands of compute-intensive data center applications.
Industries served by BittWare FPGA solutions include:
- Commercial – compute acceleration, packet processing
- Government – cybersecurity, legal intercept, crypto-anaylsis, code breaking
- Military and Aerospace – radar and sonar, electronic warfare
- Financial – high frequency trading, financial analytics
- Broadcast and Video – content distribution, high definition compression
- Instrumentation – data acquisition and control, test and measurement, life sciences
Bittware DevKits and FPGA Development Tools
BittWare has put two decades of product design experience into creating a mature and robust suite of development tools that is tightly integrated with its FPGA products. These tools for system development and FPGA development shorten our customers’ learning curve while increasing their productivity, allowing them to reduce development costs and shorten their time to market.
With a range of FPGAs on our products, we are pleased to also support several native development platforms from Achronix, Intel and Xilinx:
- Achronix ACE Design Tools
- Intel Quartus Design Software
- Xilinx Vivado Design Suite
We offer a range of development tool flows, from native HDL, HLS and OpenCL to the latest high-level software-driven tool flows, BittWare’s products support a variety of development needs.
A core benefit to BittWare FPGA products is our software: the BittWare Software Development Kit (SDK). The Bittware SDK works alongside card-specific features like Card Support Packages (CSPs) and Baseboard Management Controllers (BMCs).
Intel oneAPI – A Unified Programming Model Across Multiple Architectures
The latest high-level tool flow from Intel is oneAPI, and BittWare is pleased to play a leading role in bringing support for this innovative development platform to FPGA solutions. Supporting high-level software tool flows is critical to a growing customer base who want to take advantage of heterogenous architectures. The new oneAPI from Intel is designed around code re-use while providing similar performance to other high-level tools. Intel’s oneAPI programming model solves programming challenges by enabling easier development for acceleration across multiple architectures.
