FPGA devices now include advanced features that directly support Double Data Rate (DDR) interface technology within the I/O blocks, and on-board phase locked loop (PLL) networks for accurate clock ...

The FPGA design flow uses a language-based approach, while the pc board uses a schematic-entry methodology. The language-based hardware description language (HDL) representation of the FPGA must be ...

Yes, FPGA design will likely take you out of your comfort zone if you’ve never handled an FPGA or ASIC design. But even novices can manipulate FPGAs without resorting to a graduate degree.

FPGA design is custom silicon design with less effort than full-custom VLSI design. Besides processor cores, FPGAs today not only have logic gates and flip-flops, they also have large Block RAMs, ...

RC Cofer has more than 19 years of embedded design experience, including real-time DSP algorithm development, high-speed hardware, ASIC and FPGA design and systems engineering. His technical focus is ...

FPGA design tools haven't provided much support for partitioning design work across multiple engineers until recently. Advances in FPGA design planning and place-and-route (PAR) tools, however, now ...

DSP design DSP system design in programmable logic devices requires both high-level algorithm and hardware description language (HDL) development tools. Major FPGA vendors offer DSP builder tools that ...

Electronic Design held a series of Q&A sessions with several major FPGA companies. Here, our roundtable discussion with Lattice Semiconductor included Bertrand Leigh, director of applications ...

[Roland Lutz] gave a talk about FPGA design using the free tools for Lattice devices at the MetaRheinMainChaosDays conference this year. You can see the video below. It’s a great introduction to ...

In just a few short years, FPGAs have become an integral part of system design for many applications either as a co-processor or the main system processor. As FPGA size and performance increases, ...
