Why FPGA Efficiency Is Lower Than ASIC?

Why FPGA Efficiency Is Lower Than ASIC?

FPGA is a “reconfigurable logic” device. Chips are manufactured first, then “reconfigured” during redesign. ASICs do not require “reconfiguration”. You design it first, hand it over to the foundry, and then manufacture the chip. Now let’s take a look at the structure of these chips and how they differ. ● Logic Units: The Basic Module … Read more

Learning STM32: A Comprehensive Guide

Learning STM32: A Comprehensive Guide

Introduction Many people who have learned STM32 share a common characteristic: they can only use some representative hardware functions, such as AD conversion, and can only perform single conversions, while they struggle with looping or multiple conversions. This leads to the necessity of referring to the chip manual; however, the problem arises because the chip … Read more
