Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are becoming an increasingly popular tool for applications where high performance, low latency and power efficiency are requires. Since an FPGA can be ...

Programming languages are evolving to bring the software closer to hardware. As hardware architectures become more parallel (with the advent of multicore processors and FPGAs, for example), sequential ...

In the Active-HDL Designer Edition, a low-cost mixed-language RTL simulator, designers gain a high-performance simulator for designs targeted at FPGAs. Basically, FPGA designers have been forced to ...

Active-HDL Designer Edition is available today and supports Windows 32/XP/Vista operating systems. The product is offered as a one year time based license and available as either a node locked ($1,995 ...

MyHDL is a Python module that brings FPGA programming into the Python environment. [Christopher Felton] tipped us off about a simple tutorial he just finished that gives an overview of how the module ...

Spade is an open-source hardware description language (HDL) developed at Linköping University, Sweden. Other HDLs you might have heard of include Verilog and VHDL. Hardware engineers use HDLs to ...

A field programmable gate array (FPGA) is a user-programmable piece of silicon constructed in very large-scale integration (VLSI) technology. The VLSI transistor-level detail is absolutely predefined ...

The MKR Vidor-4000 FPGA is the latest market entry of the Arduino boards. Since its introduction in 2011, the Arduino low-cost electronics prototyping platform has allowed engineers, designers, ...

In the last years, a major transition from analog to digital modulation techniques has occurred and it can be seen in all areas of wireless communication, satellite and cellular systems. This paper ...
