Introduction to FPGAs. Learn what makes them special. It is intended for beginners to learn the basics of VHDL and Verilog programming.
An FPGA vendor depends on a vast library of its own and partners' IP in a world of constant process migration and architectural evolution, and of stark distinctions between hard and soft IP. And it gets feedback from literally thousands of different real designs. So it is an ideal laboratory...
An intellectual property core (IP core) is a functional block of logic ordataused to make a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) orapplication-specific integrated circuitfor a product. Commonly used insemiconductors, an IP core is a reusable unit of logic or integrated circuit (IC) layout desi...
FPGAstands forField Programmable Gate Array. An FPGA is an integrated circuit that can be programmed or configured by the customer or designer after manufacturing. This allows the FPGA to be customized to perform specific functions required for an application. FPGAs contain programmable logic blocks ...
What the FPGA? Here's the first part of the blurb from our site for this particular board (the TinyFPGA AX1). The TinyFPGA A1 board is a bare-bones FPGA board in a tiny form-factor. Add custom digital logic to your next project!
Similar to OpenFlow, the architecture of POF includes two parts: the control plane (POF controller) and the data plane (POF Forwarding Element (FE)). POF is an SDN technology that comprehensively abstracts network processing into a more interoperable, protocol-oblivious process, while supporting pr...
FPGAs are extremely versatile. They allow developers to test any number of variables after the board is built. When changes are required, new configuration files are transferred onto the device that make new functionality available. This flexibility allows OEMs to ship systems earlier in the design...
DDR3 SDRAM Controller with UniPHY Intel® FPGA IP Version Found: 13.0 Description What is the afi_reset_export_n port used for? Resolution Beginning with the Quartus® II software version 13.0, the memory controllers with UniPHY IP generate an extra port afi_reset_export_n when ...
What is a FIFO in an FPGA Topics covered in this article: Ⅰ. What is FIFO? Ⅱ. How many structures does FIFO have? Ⅲ. What are the functions of FIFO of different structures? Ⅳ. How to use FIFO to implement the functional design in Altera FPGA? Ⅰ. What is FIFO? First In First...
Such flexible connectivity is made possible due to the programmable nature of FPGAs, which allows implementing any routing scheme digitally. Embedded Hard IP Cores In addition to the fundamental CLB, I/O and interconnect fabric, many Spartan families also integrate on-chip memory and processing thro...
