Xilinx FPGA Academy I - Introduction The Xilinx Academy I is a 5 day course designed for new to beginner Xilinx FPGA users such as graduates, digital Engineers moving to FPGAs or Software engineers taking the plunge with no, or no more than 0-12 months experience with FPGAs and VHDL. It is also a good course to gain a structured understanding of VHDL. We talk you through the ISE tool and its capabilities, the implementation flow,  more...

Designing with the Xilinx Spartan-6 FPGA ...g resources, global and I/ O clocking techniques, memory, DSP, and source-synchronous resources. Memory controller support and the dedicated hardware resources available in each of the sub-families (PCI Express ® technology, memory controller block, and GTP transceivers) are also introduced. This course also includes a detailed discussion about proper HDL coding techniques that enables  more...

Designing with Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGAs Are you interested in learning how to effectively utilize Virtex ®-6 FPGA architectural resources? This course supports both experienced and less experienced FPGA designers who have already completed the Essentials of FPGA Design course. This course focuses on understanding as well as how to properly design for the primary resources found in this popular device family. Topics covered  more...

Essential DSP Implementation Techniques for Xilinx FPGAs ...urse provides a foundation for Digital Signal Processing (DSP) techniques for Xilinx FPGAs. The course begins with a refresher of basic binary number theory, mathematics, and the essential features within the FPGA that are important to signal processing. The body of the course explores a variety of filter techniques with emphasis on optimal implementation in Xilinx devices and continues with an  more...

Xilinx FPGA Academy III - Advanced This 5 day course is targeted towards designers with a good few projects under their belts. It discusses advanced features, options and techniques. From User Constraints syntax, source and system sycnhronous IO timing contraints, TCL scripting, FPGA Editor. There are 2 days indepth training on using Plan ahead for Timing closure, area constraints, IP reuse, compression and run time  more...

Xilinx FPGA Academy II - Intermediate ...ns, LUTs, synchronous design techniques, using memory and DSP blocks to reduce Slice count. We go through Timing Closure in more detail and look at further contraining paths, synthesis and implementation options and techniques as well as a more indepth discussion of the Architecture. We also have a day to introduce and implement Chipscope in a design. This course gets fantastic feedback!  more...
