FPGA_Basic

Bankrupt

• If you do mistakes in ASICs, then you company might be rankrupt.
• solution is: FPGA. found bug :) kein problem, rewrite the code or fix the bug, upload the code again.
• yahooooooo, its working again.

CLB

• consist of : LUT + multiplexor + Full adder+ D flipflop.
• I/O block > Block RAM > reconfigurable interconnect < I/O block

advantages

• Performance
• reprogrammable
• cost: getting cheaper day by day.

Application:

• aerospace: space engineering
• medical devices
• ASIC prototyping
• deep see robot
• Audio system
• wireless communication
• vedio system
• security or cryptography

Development board

• Xilinx based (acquired by AMD): I would recommend it. since I am gonna buy one.
• Altera based (acquired by intel):
