Do you know IC called FPGA?

"I've heard the name FPGA." "Hardware engineers use it, but I don't know what it actually is."

FPGA is now one of the important parts used in many electronic devices.

In this special feature, we introduce content to help users who are unfamiliar with FPGAs learn more about FPGAs.

We also have online seminars, hands-on workshops, and self-study tutorials, so please try them out.

What kind of IC is FPGA?

Introducing the concept of device scale and development costs that you should know when learning about FPGA!
There is also a link to "Introduction to FPGA that you know and understand" to learn more about FPGA.

Examples of using FPGA

Here is an example of custom logic in the programmable logic device FPGA.

Check the required computer environment

Development software essential for FPGA development. I will talk about the "computer environment" necessary to set it up. Install the development software and prepare the computer environment necessary for subsequent operations.

What are you preparing?

I would like to check the items necessary for FPGA development. What should I prepare for?

What should I learn?

In FPGA, the user designs the internal circuit from scratch. Therefore, it is impossible to design without knowing anything at all. What should I learn first?

Let's know the flow of FPGA development

Introduces how to proceed with FPGA development (work flow).

Check useful content!

We would like to introduce useful websites for studying FPGAs and CPLDs, so that everyone can start gathering information.

A must-see for RTL design beginners!

Briefly explain the generation mechanism of hazard signals and their effect on the system.

Struggle story of a rookie engineer

We will introduce the flow until the new engineers of the Intel FPGA distributor solve the questions and troubles that occurred during the training.
Please utilize the practical know-how that these unique individuals have acquired through their struggles in your business.

Manuals that match the development flow

We will explain the general development flow of FPGA/CPLD and introduce the materials that we would like you to refer to in each development phase.

Let's move FPGA!

demo video

Get an introduction to the products you need to design an Intel FPGA and the work flow of Quartus Prime with a simple demonstration.

Let's try for L Chika!

Let's write HDL to light up an LED on the development board.

Clock synchronization L blinking

Clock synchronization is an essential concept for FPGA design. This time, the L blinking is blinking using the flip-flop inside the FPGA.

If you are a self-study type, click here

Free FPGA Learning Kit Rental

We will deliver a set of evaluation environment in "Box" that anyone can easily learn the development flow of Intel FPGA.

As long as you have a computer, you can attend workshops using development tools and evaluation boards at any time and place.

Only practice!

Let's create a simple design in the tutorial and run it on the actual device.

(Some exercises can be performed without a development board.)
