It has been over 10 years since I first encountered FPGA during my university days. I still remember the excitement of completing experiments like a digital stopwatch, quiz buzzer, and password lock on the EDA experimental platform. At that time, I had not yet been exposed to HDL hardware description languages, and designs were implemented … Read more
Introduction When learning FPGA, the first thing we need to study is the programming language for FPGA. Unlike the “high-level” languages such as C, C++, and Java used in software development, the language used for FPGA development is called Hardware Description Language (HDL), or Register Transfer Level (RTL) language. The mainstream hardware description languages are … Read more
