This is actually possible – and with an average efficiency improvement of 20% to 50% for medium to high complexity FPGAs. Less for data path oriented designs and more for control or protocol oriented ...

This course will introduce students to practical design methodologies for developing applications for FPGAs and ASICs. You will learn the fundamentals for FPGA and ASIC design through software coding ...

We’re really not supposed to start a feature like this; but this hack is awesome. It’s a game of Snake implemented by an FPGA dev board. It uses a 16×16 LED matrix as the display and an SNES ...

The lines between a server, a SmartNIC, and a Data Processing Unit, or DPU, are getting fuzzier, and the good news is that definitions do not matter nearly as much as use cases. And with its so-called ...

Hackaday brought you a first look the Arduino MKR Vidor 4000 when it announced. Arduino sent over one of the first boards so now we finally have our hands on one! It’s early and the documentation is ...

Every new hardware device that offers some kind of benefit compared to legacy devices faces the task of overcoming the immense inertia that is imparted to a platform by the software that runs upon it.

The more we know about the bigger picture, context, historical and projected trends, or simply how other people do the same thing we do, the more efficiently and successfully we can do our specific ...

Datacenter adoption of FPGAs for workload acceleration has been a hot topic of late—especially after Microsoft announced significant gains in its datacenter at the Hot Chips conference in August.

I put a blog entry up on the Oasys blog about their new release, which is the first to support VHDL. But a couple of people told me it was a nice recounting of history so I decided to put a more ...

There are a lot of great Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) articles; however, it can be challenging to find ones written for beginners. I wrote this article to help beginners understand basic FPGA ...
