I have been designing ASICs for more than 15 years. A few years ago I started to realize that there is another player in town and that is the FPGA circuit. With increasing NRE
costs and with the long turn-around times, ASIC designs have become
high-risk projects. At the same time FPGAs are getting bigger and
faster and many companies have therefore decided to only use FPGAs.
To learn how to design using an FPGA I ordered a PowerPC and MicroBlaze development kit DO-ML403-EDK-ISE-USB-EC from Xilinx. You can read the full story here.
