This course allows the introduction of the student inside the world of digital systems design with FPGAs, covering a wide range of topics related to digital systems design with FPGAs, including: the explanation of the architecture of these devices, simulations tools, the design with FPGAs, the use of commercial tools and several practical applications among others.
The course is divided in four main modules, composed of several short videos with a practiced-oriented design, which facilitates the acquisition of knowledge.
