Editor's Note: As you will soon discover, the author – Sven – has created the most fantastic on-going tutorial on learning how to design with FPGAs from the ground up. This article is merely an ...

It doesn't matter if you're the logic designer, hardware engineer, or systems engineer, or if you wear all of those hats. If you use an FPGA in any sort of complex system with high speeds and multiple ...

FPGAs are expensive... and hard to use... and too slow... and difficult to program... and hard to debug... and they draw too much power... and require register-transfer-level (RTL) wizards. That’s the ...

Xilinx has launched its first Targeted Design Platforms for accelerating systems development and integration with its 28nm 7 series Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Xilinx’s Targeted Design ...

High-level synthesis (HLS) tools, which transform C/C++ source code to Verilog/VHDL, have been commercially available for over 15 years. HLS tools from FPGA vendors and EDA companies promise improved ...
