Getting Started With FPGAs - Programmable Logic For Makers
Maker Faire Bay Area 2019
May 17th-19th
Sometimes you just can't accomplish what you are trying to do with a micro-controller and need to find a better solution. In this presentation I will show you how to get started developing programmable logic with FPGAs for those kind of projects where a micro-controller by itself just can't cut it.
