The Last Byte: FPGAs, Programming Models, and Kit Cars

摘要

FPGA HARDWARE CAPABILITIES have grown tremendously in 30 years' time. In the early 1980s, an FPGA could implement only a few hundred gates of logic. Today's 28-nm FPGAs provide over 4,000 multiply-accumulate units, 10 million logic gates, thousands of on-chip RAM blocks, and myriad special-purpose units like PCI-express interfaces.
