The FPGA Programming Handbook

FPGA Programming Languages and Tools

In the previous chapter, we explored what makes up an FPGA and looked at ASICs and Boolean functions, the underlying technology. We saw how these simple gates can be stitched together to create more complex functions. We explored the AMD Xilinx Artix 7 architecture and the Nexys 7 development board.

In this chapter, we are going to cover the following main topics:

Hardware Description Language (HDL)
Introducing Vitis and Vivado

Challenge

Open CH2/SystemVerilog/build/challenge.xpr or CH2/VHDL/build/challenge.xpr.
Modify the lines in challenge.sv to implement a full adder:

SystemVerilog

  assign LED[0]  = ; // Write the code for the Sum
  assign LED[1]  = ; // Write the code for the Carry

VHDL

  LED(0)  = ; -- Write the code for the Sum
  LED(1)  = ; -- Write the code for the Carry

Modify tb_challenge.sv to test it:

SystemVerilog

    if () then // Modify for checking

VHDL

    if … begin -- Modify for checking

Hint: You may want to jump ahead in the book at Chapter 3, Combinational Logic to look at addition or do a quick web search.

What is custom duty/charge?

Customs duty are charges levied on goods when they cross international borders. It is a tax that is imposed on imported goods. These duties are charged by special authorities and bodies created by local governments and are meant to protect local industries, economies, and businesses.

Do I have to pay customs charges for the print book order?

The orders shipped to the countries that are listed under EU27 will not bear custom charges. They are paid by Packt as part of the order.

List of EU27 countries: www.gov.uk/eu-eea:

A custom duty or localized taxes may be applicable on the shipment and would be charged by the recipient country outside of the EU27 which should be paid by the customer and these duties are not included in the shipping charges been charged on the order.

How do I know my custom duty charges?

The amount of duty payable varies greatly depending on the imported goods, the country of origin and several other factors like the total invoice amount or dimensions like weight, and other such criteria applicable in your country.

For example:

Ashley May 03, 2024

This book is one of the most comprehensive books I've read that I believe serves as a perfect introduction for those getting into FPGA development! It starts off introducing logic gates and going into the component makeup of FPGAs, but will soon go into the principles of programming. Examples include the use of Vivado and will familiarize the reader with its complexities. The book is filled with screenshots and diagrams that make it easy to follow along. There's example snippets written in both VHDL and SystemVerilog, which I appreciate very much. There are also tons of reference links sprinkled throughout the book for supplementary information. Overall, it's very well written, fun to read, and I would definitely recommend to everyone eager to get started with Digital Design!

Hammed Omotoso Jun 22, 2024

The FPGA Programming Handbook is an essential resource for intermediate learners and engineers aiming to improve their FPGA programming skills for practical applications. It offers a strong foundation in both SystemVerilog and VHDL, leading readers through the design process from concept to implementation.

Fpga handbook is a must for all beginners getting into the world of fpga. Frank has done some incredible work on this title.

gregor May 21, 2024

This book is excellent for beginners not only does it explain the basic architecture of an FPGA and how to use it but it also provides excellent example code to easily get you started. It covers why use an fpga or an ASIC chip, how to use an FPGA in an embedded microcontroller, how to use various inputs like a digital microphone. The various projects such as how to build a calculator, keep a car in a straight line are easy to follow along to anyone with basic electronic knowledge.
