在过去二十多年里,FPGA 一直处在一个略显尴尬的位置:它比 ASIC 灵活,却不够高效;比 GPU 可定制,却更难开发。因此,FPGA 长期被贴上两个标签:“工程师的工具”,以及“原型验证的平台”。
FPGAs are being chosen more and more frequently to comprise the heart of the modern electronic system. There are several possible reasons for this – low cost, ready availability and increasing ...
FPGA 是一堆晶体管,你可以把它们连接(wire up)起来做出任何你想要的电路。它就像一个纳米级面包板。使用 FPGA 就像芯片流片,但是你只需要买这一张芯片就可以搭建不一样的设计,作为交换,你需要付出一些效率上的代价。 从字面上讲这种说法并不对,因为你 ...

We often think that not enough people are building things with FPGAs. We also love the retrotechtacular posts on old computer hardware. So it was hard to pass up [karlwoodward’s] post about the Chip ...
The quest for better throughput, faster changeover times, and less waste and downtimes has made machine-automation systems more complicated. Besides handling logic or process controls, systems today ...
Embedded designers have implemented heterogeneous architectures since the advent of commercially viable FPGAs. Initially, FPGAs acted primarily as glue logic for an interface between processing ...
