The ubiquitous field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is finding use as a software accelerator in many applications, including the communications, image processing, biomedical, and scientific computing ...

To make FPGAs accessible to DSP engineers without hardware design expertise, FPGA and tool vendors have developed tools that allow FPGAs to be programmed in high-level behavioral languages such as ...

MyHDL is a Python module that brings FPGA programming into the Python environment. [Christopher Felton] tipped us off about a simple tutorial he just finished that gives an overview of how the module ...

This course will give you the foundation for using Hardware Description Languages, specifically VHDL and Verilog for Logic Design. You will learn the history of both VHDL and Verilog and how to use ...

FPGAs shorten reaction times in motion controls. The quest for better throughput, faster changeover times, and less waste and downtimes has made machine-automation systems more complicated. Besides ...

Almost since they were first invented, the reconfigurable computing platforms called "Field Programmable Gate Arrays" have had a reputation: "Good idea in theory, but..." Now, a University of Southern ...

The current public debate on the future of the semiconductor industry has turned to discussions about a growing selection of technologies that, rather than obsessing on further process geometry ...

An FPGA, when incorporated into an SDR, is incredibly powerful—these systems can provide the needed input/output bandwidth and processing capabilities for implementing multi-gigasample rates and ...
