Description:

...a must-read book for those designers who either want an introduction to
designing with FPGAs or need to broaden their understanding of the EDA tools
available for such applications. Maxfield writes in a easy-to-read style, and
provides insightful and diverse information for designers and curious readers
alike. The author has never forgotten his designer roots, and the book is full
of examples and chapters dedicated to such applications as gigabit
transceivers, linear-feedback-shift registers, and integration of third-party
cores. -- EDN, 5/21/2004Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are
devices that provide a fast, low-cost way for embedded system designers to
customize products and deliver new versions with upgraded features, because
they can handle very complicated functions, and be reconfigured an infinite
number of times. FPGAs have recently become much faster and more powerful,
making them suitable for use with a wide range of embedded products. This has
created a rapidly expanding market in the embedded world as products migrate
to these flexible parts, and a need for designers to educate themselves
quickly about working with FPGAs - which they can do with this
book.Clive "Max" Maxfield is a bestselling author and engineer with a
large following in the electronic design automation (EDA)and embedded systems
industry. In this comprehensive book, he covers all the issues of interest to
designers working with, or contemplating a move to, FPGAs in their product
designs. While other books cover fragments of FPGA technology or applications
this is the first to focus exclusively and comprehensively on FPGA use for
embedded systems.
