Course Information

Course will present FPGA technologies and methods using CAD design tools for implementation of digital systems using FPGAs. Topics include advanced methods of digital circuit design including specification, synthesis, implementation and prototyping; managing multiple clock domains, static timing analysis, timing closure, system reset design, simulation, and optimization; troubleshooting using embedded logic analyzers and integrated development environments (IDEs). Practical system design examples include general purpose data processing, system on a chip (SOC) prototyping, hardware accelerators, and an introduction to domain specific architectures.
