How easy are FPGA's to hook up and use use compared to traditional microcontrollers?<br /><br />A brief explanation of why FPGA are a lot more complicated to setup and get working than microcontrollers.<br />A short video linking to several other FGPA videos.<br />NOTE: This is very old footage that was meant to be part of a series of videos on trying out some FPGA demo boards. It's been sitting around for too long, so I'm uploading all the footage I have now.<br /><br />What is an FPGA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gUsHwi4M4xE<br />FPGA Implementation Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AFGcAyK7kE<br />What is JTAG: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlWlLeC5BUs<br />FPGA Demo Boards: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XZpYfm7jOt8<br /><br />Forum: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/blog/eevblog-635-fpga%27s-vs-microcontrollers/<br /><br />EEVblog Main Web Site:<br />http://www.eevblog.com<br />EEVblog Amazon Store:<br />http://astore.amazon.com/eevblogstore-20<br />Donations:<br />http://www.eevblog.com/donations/<br />Projects:<br />http://www.eevblog.com/projects/<br />Electronics Info Wiki:<br />http://www.eevblog.com/wiki/
