Experimenting with Metastability and Multiple Clocks on FPGAs
NOTE: This article appeared in Issue 293 of Circuit Cellar, back in December 2014. I’ve posted it here for your reading pleasure as well. References…

FPGA Board Design Tips
NOTE: This article appeared in Issue 315 of Circuit Cellar, back in October 2016. I’ve posted it here for your reading pleasure as well. References…

Side-Channel Power Analysis of AES Core in Project Vault
What is Project Vault You can read a quick overview on various news sites, but basically project vault gives you a cryptographic module that you have…
Programmable Logic in Practice
I wrote for Circuit Cellar in a column titled “Programmable Logic in Practice” from 2013-2015. This column detailed various work around FPGAs. The…
Split Ground Plane: Example of failing high-speed signals
I’ve got a SASEBO-W board, which has a FPGA & a FT2232H for high-speed USB comms. I was seeing errors on the high-speed USB device, and couldn’t…
Design a FIR Filter in an FPGA in 30 mins using High Level Synthesis
I’ve been working with Xilinx’s new High Level Synthesis tools built into Vivado. I’m slowly working on posting some more complete tutorials. In the…
High-Speed ADC with Variable Gain Amp Input
Here is an ongoing project: it’s a high-speed ADC combined with some nice input preprocessing (amplifier). It’s all controlled by a FPGA on the Avnet…
Avnet Spartan-6 LX9 Board: Or How ChipScope is your Saviour
I was recently working on a project which needed more gates than I had in my trusty current FPGA Board (Spartan3-200 on DLP-FPGA-HS). I quickly found…
