Arrgghhh! Will this never end? I just received an email from someone who asked: Hello Max, Would you please provide me any details about relation between Logic Elements (LEs) and System Gates count.

This course will give you the foundation for FPGA design in Embedded Systems. You will learn what an FPGA is and how this technology was developed, how to select the best FPGA architecture for a given ...

Today, FPGA designers are using these flexible devices to perform everything from simple glue logic tasks to implementing complicated system on a chip (SoC) functions. The efficiency and ease of ...

You see them at almost every user seminar or industry trade show workshop: the Methodology Managers from XYZ Corporation, who describe the system they use to help the company make sense of the ...

When you first learn about digital logic, it probably seems like it is easy. You learn about AND and OR gates and figure that’s not very hard. However, going from a few basic gates to something like a ...

Editor's note: This is a brief excerpt from article on EE Times' Programmable Logic Designline. To read the full article, click here. Sven Andersson's tutorial “How to design an FPGA from scratch” was ...

How do they get a complete logic analyzer in that tiny package? The advent of programmable logic devices (PLDs) started discrete-logic ICs on the road to extinction years ago. The expansion of PLDs to ...

Once considered just a logic replacement for small- and medium-scale logic devices, the field-programmable gate array (FPGA) has come into its own as a total system solution. It can replace anything ...

This paper will explain how new ASSP ventures face challenges that can derail success of a product even before the first device is sold, including market entry barriers such as time to market ...

Cofer and Harding discuss how to implement DSP functionality, covering when FPGAs are a good fit for DSP algorithm implementation and important design decisions and considerations. Each of these ...
