Description
Basic introduction into fpgas (and digital logic). This will have a lot of new stuff if you are a total begginer, you'll have to study abit to keep up :)
The plan is to have 3 introductory sessions, and then get into more hands on things. Hopefully we'll have our own (tiny and minimal) working cpu by the end of this !
The schedule will be adapted as we go on -- this is a rough plan
Prerequisite knowledge and skills
- Basic understanding of programming
- Basic knowledge of git (http://githowto.com/ can help you, we'll use git for examples and collaborating)
- Github account (We'll host our stuff there)
- A laptop (We do have some some spare computers in hackerspace, but you'll need to work on your own at home)
