FPGA Embedded Design, Part 1 - Verilog

Course details

Do you feel you've learned enough about microcontrollers? Do you want to learn more embedded application design techniques? How about a technique that will allow you to design high-performance systems the way professional equipment designers do?

If you're still interested, this curriculum is for you. The Way Beyond Arduino series will teach you the exquisite art of FPGA design. 

So what is an FPGA anyway?

Before moving on, let me tell you that an FPGA is not a microcontroller. It's not a computer. Well, at least not if you don't want it to be a microcontroller or computer.

The simplest explanation of an FPGA I've found is that it's a shape shifter! It's an integrated circuit that will behave as the logic circuit you'd like, and the way of letting it know the desired behavior is, yes, you guessed it, through programming. 

But you will not do this with a Programming Language, but with a Hardware Description Language!
