FPGA Basics: How to Determine the Size of the Ping-Pong Buffer Pool

Introduction We have previously discussed the essence of ping-pong operations, but when it comes to practical implementation in engineering, an unavoidable question arises: How should the buffer size be determined? Buffer design may seem like just “storing more data,” but if it is too small, it may lead to packet loss due to mismatched upstream … Read more
