The books ambition is to: · train both theoretical and practical use of the fundamental low-level C and tools · train basic real-time operating system · train use of analog sensors and digital Bluetooth (connect to PC/Android)
The training is done by walking systematically through entire designs together with adequate theory. The design tools used in the book are professional and free to download for education purpose. The training is done with the design tools and validated on a FPGA board (Field Programmable Gate Arrays).
The book can be order from Amazon, as an e-book or paper book. The hardware board used in this book is DE10-Lite and produced by Terasic Inc, Taiwan. For more information visit https://www.terasic.com.tw/.

Figure 1: HW/SW learning flow for FPGA developer Errata ·
Under step 4 in chapter 6.4 a comment has made it look like
there is an extra #endif in the example code: · The first example of TCL file content in chapter 6.5 shows hw_class_name as just “timer” this should be “TIMER_HW_IP”. · Table 38 incorrectly show the unoptimized code example using an unsigned integer value for x. This variable must be signed (int x) or the loop will run indefinitely. · Figure 121 shows the VGA buffer having 0-219 rows, but it is actually 0-239 rows.
