8、t you could previously create only with custom-designed hardware.An FPGA is a chip that consists of many unconfigured logic gates. Unlike the fixed, vendor-defined functionality of an ASIC (application-specific integrated circuit) chip, you can configure and reconfigure the logic on FPGAs for your s

The flexible, software-programmable architecture of FPGAs offer benefits such as high-performance exec

Today, FPGAs appear in such devices as instruments, consumer electronics, automobiles, aircraft, copy machines, and application-specific computer hardware. While FPGAs

Defining FPGAs has historically required expertise using HDL programming or complex design tools used more by hardware design engineers than by control engineer

Because the LabVIEW FPGA

14、d RIO Hardware Platforms NI RIO Hardware for PACs Historically, programming FPGAs has been limited to engineers who have in-depth knowledge of VHDL or other low-level design tools, which require overcoming a very steep learning curve.

Measurement and control engineers can focus primarily on their test and control application, where their expertise lies, rather than the low-level semantics of transferring logic into the cells of the chip.
