Title
A Platform Independent Tool For Programming, Visualization And Simulation Of Simplified Fpgas
Abstract
During the last few decades complex programmable circuits have seen a widespread usage in various digital circuit applications. One prominent example are Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). Teaching FPGA technology has become an integral part of introductory digital logic courses. However, implementing Boolean functions in this technology requires understanding of several steps that are not trivial, including Boolean function decomposition, mapping the design into physical programmable units and routing. We have developed a portable Java-based tool which allows students to experiment with the required steps for arbitrary Boolean functions and to simulate the obtained implementation. In this paper, we give an overview of the developed tool and discuss its usage in class.
