<div><p>Use Arrow's affordable and breadboard-friendly FPGA development board (BeMicro MAX 10) to create a light sensor, temperature sensor, motion sensor, and the KITT car display from Knight Rider.</p>

<p>&nbsp;You don't need an electronics engineering degree or even any programming experience to get the most out of&nbsp;<i>Beginning FPGA: Programming Metal</i>. Just bring your curiosity and your Field-Programmable Gate Array. This book is for those who have tinkered with Arduino or Raspberry Pi, and want to get more hands-on experience with hardware or for those new to electronics who just want todive in.</p>

<p>You'll learn the theory behind FPGAs and electronics, including the math and logic you need to understand what's happening - all explained in a fun, friendly, and accessible way. It also doesn't hurt that you'll be learning VHDL, a hardware description language that is also an extremely marketable skill.</p></div><div><br></div><div><b>What You'll Learn:</b><br></div><div><ul><li>Learn what an FPGA is and how it's different from a microcontroller or ASIC </li><li>Set up your toolchain </li><li>Use VHDL, a popular hardware description language, to tell your FPGA what to be </li><li>Explore the theory behind FPGA and electronics </li><li>Use your FPGA with a variety of sensors and to talk to a Raspberry Pi&nbsp;</li></ul></div><div><br></div><div><b>Who This Book is For:</b></div><div><br></div><div>Arduino, Raspberry Pi, and other electronics enthusiasts who want a clear and practical introduction to FPGA.&nbsp;<br></div>
