DesignLinx, the Premier Coaching Service Provider for AMD North America.
Expand your team’s skills with a customized two- to three-day learning workshop. Engaging, interactive, and practical, workshop topics are selected and tailored to meet your team’s unique needs and goals.
Topics are selected and tailored to meet your team’s unique needs and goals. Examples include, but are not limited to:
A workshop can cover as many topics as you like. We craft the learning experience to meet your objectives and your team's specific skill set.
Workshops may be one day or several days, depending on the number of topics covered. Sessions typically start at 9:00 a.m. and run until 5:00 p.m., including short breaks and a lunch break. Multiple-day workshop sessions can be scheduled consecutively, several days apart, or even weeks apart, depending on your team's schedule.
We deliver the same high-quality material through either live virtual sessions or in person, at your location.
Maximize project momentum. Give your team direct access to a senior DesignLinx FPGA engineer, whenever help is needed.
The term of engagement is designed to meet your specific needs. There is no minimum requirement.
Video conference-based Xpert-on-Demand services are available.
Yes. An Xpert-on-Demand will respond to your question within one business day. You are only billed for the support hours used.
Xpert-on-Demand can be tailored to meet your specific needs.
Try before you buy an AMD evaluation board with QuickStart Board-on-Demand.
Once approved by your AMD FAE or Avnet FAE to use the Board-on-Demand system, you can reserve a virtual board for a period of one-to-five consecutive days. You can make more than one reservation in a 12-month period, but all your reservations—when added together—cannot exceed 30 days during that period.
You connect using the AMD Hardware Manager—just like you would if the board was on your desk!

"We weren’t sure if we had an FPGA issue or a board-level issue. We were introduced to DesignLinx and after some discussions they offered both an FPGA code review and a Schematic and Signal Integrity review. Ultimately it turned out that the signal integrity analysis caught a marginal issue. We spun the board and the problem was fixed!”
