FPGA config sizes

We're planning a new universal boot loader for a family of ST processors. The uP would host the loader in a bit of local flash and read an outboard serial flash to get the specific application code and one or more FPGA configurations. So,...

VHDL or Verilog?

I've been given conflicting device on which language to use. There are people I would consider to be expert professionals who tell me to use VHDL, and others who tell me Verilog. Most everybody tells me that if I use VHDL there's less...

Low End FPGAs

So I'm looking at various platforms for general purpose, fairly low-end FPGAs, and it looks like the Lattice ECP5, Xilinx Artix-7, and Altera Cyclone V E all have options in the sort of * 170ish IO * Enough logic to do PLDy sort of...

Lattice MachXO3L - is it available anywhere ?

I've downloaded documetnation on lower part of newcomers - MachXO3. New Diamnond 3.1 has support for chips, but I can't find chips anyhwere. I tried Farnell and Mouser and couple of other adresses, but so far can't find anything. Had...
