From: John Adair on 25 Apr 2010 08:00 To complete a busy week of new boards a picture of our new 48 pin FPGA DIL module - Craignell2-48 is now on http://www.enterpoint.co.uk/component_replacements/craignell2.html. We have these with us to show at ESC in San Jose this week.for anyone going to that event and wants to see and hold them. John Adair Enterpoint Ltd.

OK, seriously, I have a real question : how do you find and choose the names of your products ? like, you gather your team and take each syllabe from their names, and see what combination sounds best ? I'm just curious :-) > John Adair > Enterpoint Ltd. yg -- http://ygdes.com / http://yasep.org

It seems that most (all?) Enterpoint products are named after Scotish landmarks. -- Muzaffer Kal DSPIA INC. ASIC/FPGA Design Services http://www.dspia.com

As a Scot, I can assure you that there are also Welsh and Irish landmarks in the product range, though I'm not seeing many English landmarks, say from the Malvern hills or thereabouts. Perhaps we'll see a Bredon one of these days, or even a Wyre Piddle. Or perhaps not... - Brian

The early board range names are actually our local Malvern Hills - Broaddown, Raggedstone, Hollybush. We did miss some of these as being inappropriate, boring, or even indistinct, e.g. Hangmans Hill. The later product familiy names are from the Galloway Hills in Scotland where there are more names of distinction. The later names also have a size link. It's not a totally accurate naming system but we give brownie points to anyone can pronounce them properly. Maybe I will keep score this week in San Jose and see what percentage get them right or nearly so. John Adair Enterpoint Ltd.
