WHO, WHAT, WHERE, WHY?<br />

Who are you?<br />

<strong>The</strong> DINI <strong>Group</strong> was formed in May of 1995. We started as a consulting organization<br />

specializing in <strong>FPGA</strong> and board-level design. We branched into ASIC design in 1998, with<br />

particular emphasis in PCI and PCI-X. Our standard products are the direct result of unmet<br />

<strong>FPGA</strong>-based product needs discovered in our consulting practice. At present we have 20<br />

employees.<br />

Measured in numbers of gates shipped, we are the world’s<br />

leading provider of ASIC prototyping hardware.<br />

What are your products?<br />

We make big <strong>FPGA</strong> boards. <strong>The</strong> most common application for big <strong>FPGA</strong> boards is ASIC<br />

and SOC prototyping. Big <strong>FPGA</strong> boards in specialized configurations can be used to<br />

accelerate certain types of algorithms. In other configurations, large <strong>FPGA</strong> boards can be<br />

used for high frequency, low-latency trading.<br />

Where?<br />

We are based in La Jolla,<br />

California. La Jolla is about<br />

10 miles north of San Diego.<br />

Why?<br />

<strong>FPGA</strong> Prototyping is rapidly<br />

becoming a requirement due<br />

to the complexity and costs<br />

of ASIC tapeouts and spins.<br />

But <strong>FPGA</strong> boards required<br />

specialized teams to design<br />

and build. It is much easier and cheaper to buy off-the-shelf <strong>FPGA</strong> boards from those of us<br />

that already have that specialized set of skills.<br />
