Getting Started With FPGAs - Programmable Logic For Makers

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.

What inspired you to begin investigating your topic or inspired you to make your project?:
In my professional life I worked on several projects that required FPGAs however I never had the opportunity to do the development myself. Over the past few years this technology has become more approachable for hobbyists. This year I had a project that couldn't be accomplished with just a microcontroller so I learned how to use FPGAs to accomplish what I wanted to do.
