Signal Processing Interview by Open Architecture Review (OAR) with Rodger Hosking, Pentek Vice President and Cofounder


Rodger Hosking has seen many generations of signal processing come and go. In his interview, he discusses a variety of current topics of interest with Open Architecture Review, including the emergence of point-to-point serial links, the roles of VXS and VPX, mezzanine trends, the FPGA phenomenon and the uncertain future of general-purpose DSPs in military and government electronics.

"We just announced a family of beamforming products that use PCI Express for controlling and loading data on and off the modules, but they also use the Aurora protocol."

- Rodger Hosking, Pentek Vice President and Cofounder
