PulseRain M10 – FPGA Development board is Arduino compatible
https://www.electronics-lab.com/pulserain-m10-fpga-development-board-arduino-compatible/
Over the years FPGAs have become readily available to the maker community. They are now more accessible than ever as many development boards has seen the light. It’s now possible to embed a soft-core MCU into an FPGA rather than using a hard-core ASIC MCU and here is where PulseRain comes into play with an […]

What is Embedded FPGA — Known as eFPGA
https://www.electronics-lab.com/embedded-fpga-known-efpga/
Today’s market requirements change faster than the typical development time for a new device or the ability of designers of SoCs to know. To solve this problem, FPGAs/MCUs are used so developers can change the configuration/firmware later. As known, MCU IP is static and you can’t change the silicon design (RTL design) after fabrication. FPGA […]
Spectrum Next, A New of ZX Spectrum
https://www.electronics-lab.com/spectrum-next-new-zx-spectrum/
In 1982, the UK’s best selling computer, ZX Spectrum, was released by Sinclair as 8-bit personal home computer highlighting the machine’s color display. And today, a group of makers are introducing the Spectrum Next, an updated and enhanced version of ZX Spectrum. The Spectrum Next is fully compatible with the original one. It has been enhanced to provide a […]
FPGAs For MCU Guys
https://www.electronics-lab.com/fpgas-mcu-guys/
by Max Maxfield @ eeweb.com: A little while ago, it struck me that I was getting tired of explaining what FPGAs are and how they work their magic to those of my chums who — thus far — have worked only with microcontrollers (MCUs), so I decided to write a three-part mini-series of articles to […]
FPGA eink controller
https://www.electronics-lab.com/fpga-eink-controller/
Julien @ hackaday.io build a custom board to control e-ink display. He writes: The idea is to control an old broken kindle 3 eink display with a FPGA. I started looking at http://essentialscrap.com/eink/waveforms.html and http://spritesmods.com/?art=einkdisplay since eink constructor is so secretive that you can’t find any information. I got some success with a stm32f4 microcontroller […]

Low-Cost FPGA With Reconfigurable Electronics Feature
https://www.electronics-lab.com/low-cost-fpga-reconfigurable-electronics-feature/
Iolinker is a cheap 64 FPGA board with a MachXO FPGA that functions as a dynamically configurable IO matrix. Its main functionality, besides IO extension, is to dynamically set up a matrix of GPIO connections, that allow direct pass-through of high-frequency signals. Circuits can thereby be configured and programmed on the fly. There are UART […]
