On December 5th, HIT held the establishment ceremony?for the?HIT-Xilinx Innovation Lab for Electronic Technology. Vice President?XU Dianguo and?Xilinx?Global UniversityProgram Manager?Jason Wong?inaugurated?the joint lab together.?Related persons?of?the Laboratory?Management and Teaching Condition Protection Division?and?the School?of Electrical Engineering and Automation and the Electrical and Electronic Laboratory Teaching Center attended the activities.?

?

In the ceremony, Vice President XU and Manager Wong delivered speeches respectively.They both?expressed hopes?that the establishment of?the?joint lab could?enhancecooperation?between?HIT and Xilinx enterprise and the enterprise’s influence on universities. HIT could also improve students’?innovative ability to combine?personnel training with modern high-tech and innovative concepts.?Therefore, both sides could achieve win-winthrough such?cooperation.

?

In the first joint lab program, 1000 Basys2 FPGA boards?were involved.?Compared to the traditional experimental box,?the?Basys2 FPGA board is smaller, and more?convenient?to carry.?Students can independently conduct experiments in dormitories and?libraries to improve their?capacity to deal with problems,?practical abilities and innovation?awareness.Xilinx also donated to?HIT?two ZRobot-IV smart car study kits,?two?XUPV5-LX110TFPGA Plats, two ZRobot-uarm robotics kits?and?one?PMOD module.?Xilinx will also arrange FPGA technical experts to give lectures and?exchanges two?or three?times a year.The establishment of?the HIT-Xilinx Innovation Lab for Electronic Technology?improves theexperimental?teaching of?digital electronic technology in experimental models and test content, and is significant?for students learning?and mastering?advanced FPGA?Plat, learningrich?experimental?content and?doing?innovative exercise.
