I am working on a study of embedded system. I am particularly interested in embedded system design using FPGA. Some articles suggest FPGA for rapid prototyping of an embedded system design. I couldn't come to a clear understanding of what prototyping mean in embedded system; and how using FPGA could be the fastest method for the so called "embedded system prototyping". I would like to have an explanation with good examples.
Hi,
Some people argue that using FPGA could be the fastest method for embedded systems prototyping. Well, in my point of view it is always dependent of your final application.
I can see great advantage of using FPGA when your have to handle with real-time data processing, with FPGA you can paralyse processes for instance, FPGA could be used such as a Data Memory Access.
On the other hand, VHDL code is not so easy to be implemented, so if you are looking for speed up the prototyping process take this in mind.
