FPGA programming — introduction guide to HDL

The notion of “FPGA programming” may be a little misleading. Actually, unlike a CPU, there is no program to run on an FPGA. FPGA programming consists of creating a logic circuit that will perform a requested algorithm and describe it using a hardware description language. Consequently, the building blocks of this algorithm are not variables, conditions and a set of operations to be performed, but rather logic gates, adders, registers and multiplexers. The described circuit will eventually be compiled into logic modules - the building blocks of FPGAs.

FPGA — what is it and how can it be used?

FPGA programming has been gaining momentum lately as it offers considerable benefits. It allows you to offload resource-hungry tasks to hardware and thus increase performance. FPGAs can be programmed and reprogrammed according to current needs, which is very cost effective in the long run. In this article, I explain what an FPGA is, how it can be programmed and how it can be used. A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit that can be programmed for a specific use after it has been manufactured.
