This document discusses field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). It defines FPGAs as semiconductor devices that can be programmed after manufacturing, allowing users to program product features and functions. FPGAs contain configurable logic blocks and programmable interconnects that can implement any logical function that an application-specific integrated circuit could perform. The document outlines the basic FPGA architecture including lookup tables, digital signal processing slices, block RAM, and other resources.

Definition
FPGAs are built as an array of configurable logic blocks (CLBs). A semiconductor device that can be programmed after manufacturing. FPGA allows you to program product features and functions. Can use an FPGA to implement any logical function that an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) could perform. As opposed to application specific integrated circuit (ASIC).

Example

LUTs
Memory arrays used to perform logic are called lookup tables (LUTs). A look up table (LUT) is a memory with a one-bit output that essentially implements a truth table where each input combination generates a certain logic output. Each LUT has some associated logic that includes carry logic. LUTs can perform any combinatorial function limited only by the number of inputs. LUTs are connected with dedicated multiplexers and carry logic. Some LUTs can be configured as shift registers or memories.

Conclusion
FPGAs are more powerful and more flexible than PLAs for several reasons. FPGA can be programmed by the user to realize custom-designed logic. Programming is accomplished using a hardware descriptive language (HDL), such as VHDL or Verilog. A successful programs in FPGA can be implemented as an ASIC.
