Brought to you by the IEEE Consultants Network of Long Island (LICN)

Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are a unique, versatile class of Integrated Circuits (ICs) that can be configured to implement customized digital logic circuits.

In this in-depth talk, we will explore this powerful reconfigurable hardware, starting with an overview and its history, further diving into the internal structure of an FPGA. We will examine how the core components - configurable logic blocks and various memory elements - operate and how these building blocks are configured to create specific digital functions.

This presentation will also cover the FPGA design methodology using hardware description languages (HDLs) with examples, and the various stages of synthesis, mapping, and routing.

We will also look at the practical applications in demanding fields such as medical imaging and diagnostics, and cutting-edge AI/Machine Learning acceleration, showcasing their capability for custom hardware development.
