Verilog Meetup – Get into FPGA Programmable Logic and Learn How the Chips are Designed

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Verilog Meetup

Home: California, United States

“Verilog, ASIC, FPGA” are not exactly household words, but they are at the very heart of the microelectronics revolution that brought us smartphones, fast internet, 3D graphics and AI acceleration. For the last 40 years, the Verilog hardware description language has been used to design the logic of chips. An ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) is the chip itself, and an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) is a chip used to prototype an ASIC. Verilog Meetup is a community that meets every Sunday at Hacker Dojo in Mountain View, California, and over Zoom - with participants on all continents. We create Verilog examples used by more than 25 universities worldwide. We run seminars, help to prepare for job interviews, and explore new chip design methodologies.
