Why refactor the code?: less repetition, clearer intent, easier to change timing/logic by editing a table instead of code paths. Feedback welcome—especially ideas to extend it. (Th…

I started with a very simple Arduino project: two traffic lights controlling a junction (six LEDs). I refactored it by using arrays and small, modular functions, so it’s easier to …

All the sources for the designs and testbenches were tested on Vivado and are available at GitHub. For the generic implementations I used unconstrained ports, which gives much simp…

Honey and lemon juice, mildly hot (put water in a pot, and the honey and lemon juice in a smaller glass inside the pot, stir until it is liquid and mildly hot). Grandma recipe, wor…

For me, one option is to be able to learn processors in depth. You want to understand how one works? You can always emulate it in SW, but on an FPGA you can make them interact with…

Following Altera acquisition by Intel, and Xilinx acquisition by AMD, perspectives for many FPGA designers were gloom. There was a general feeling that the two biggies would go to …

Very very nice, but I don't like that the cars are transparent

That's also the first thing I thought when I saw the title
