It’s fairly easy to create VGA with an FPGA using a simple R/2R DAC. As [Mike] points out, this requires a lot of IO pins, and many development boards only support 8 bit VGA. Analog VGA is being ...

A common way to do an FPGA design is to create a project using your design tool. A project consists of a hierarchy of directories and many files. Creating a project, you have a nice GUI, wizards, and ...

FPGA’s have become especially useful to the hacker community of late. Once upon a time, these lovely pieces of dedicated hardware were fabled to only be within reach of deep pocketed graphics card ...

FPGA design starts are on the rise due to the lower startup costs and re-programmability that FPGA devices can provide. However, large, complex FPGA devices pose significant challenges to an FPGA ...

The MARS FPGA is an ambitious, open-source project designed to surpass the capabilities of existing FPGA-based retro gaming systems, particularly the MiSTer FPGA. This powerhouse development board ...

Soon to be launching via the Crowd Supply website are two new FPGA programming boards taking the form of the µLab Kiwi and Kiwi Lite. The project has launched as yet but you can jump over to the ...

As contributors and pioneers in the digital revolution, we are often so busy creating and innovating that we are compelled to focus on the trees, never mind the forest. But as we are all aware, the ...

Making informed decisions backed by good data is the key to success in highly competitive, robust markets such as FPGA design and verification. Helping our community in that endeavor is the motivation ...

Microsoft's Project BrainWave-- its effort to use Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology to provide fast AI processing in Azure -- is now in preview in a couple of different forms. On May 7, ...
