Everything FPGA designers need to know about FPGAs and VLSIDigital designs once built in custom silicon are increasingly implemented in field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Coverage includes: How VLSI characteristics affect FPGAs and FPGA-based logic design How classical logic design techniques relate to FPGA-based logic design Understanding FPGA fabrics: the basic programmable structures of FPGAs Specifying and optimizing logic to address size, speed, and power consumption Verilog, VHDL, and software tools for optimizing logic and designs The structure of large digital systems, including register-transfer design methodology Building large-scale platform and multi-FPGA systems A start-to-finish DSP case study addressing a wide range of design problemsPRENTICE HALLProfessional Technical ReferenceUpper Sadd
From the Back CoverEverything FPGA designers need to know about FPGAs and VLSIDigital designs once built in custom silicon are increasingly implemented in field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). Next, he demonstrates how to reflect this VLSI knowledge in a state-of-the-art design methodology that leverages FPGA's most valuable characteristics while mitigating its limitations.

Beginner book A entry level book, with too much time spent on VLSI issues, with a lot of large screenshoots & large pictures just to fill in the space. The mentioned "A start-to-finish DSP case study addressing a wide range of design problems" which made me buy the book is a joke. It's hardly a advanceed DSP unit, more a Harward architecture CPU which implements 5 or 6 instructions and no advanced functionality and design issues which might arise in a complex design. You can find much better synthethiable cores free on internet to learn from them. . Not for beginners I was really disappointed with this book. It does not explain enough FPGA programming to get started, and spends much time covering topics that are probably of interest to people who already know how to use an FPGA and want to use it better.However, as far as I can tell about this, it seems to be an excellent complement to an introduction to FPGAs design. The inner workings of the system are explained in depth and very clearly.. Exelent begginers guide to FPGA design! Luis Albert Zavala In my experience knowing an HDL is as important as knowing the internal structure of the FPGA, this is the premise behind this book, so it allows building some decent performance systems right form the beginning.It starts by introducing the internal structure of an FPGA cell as well as the interconnection networks, this is very important to understand the right way for structuring a behavioral model which is the base to introduce some important details for high performance design.Then it teaches how to build combination structures, th
