Embedded Systems Design With Platform Fpgas: Principles & Practices

This document provides an overview and outline of a book on embedded systems design with platform FPGAs. It is divided into chapters that separate principles ("white pages") from practical applications ("gray pages"). Chapter 1 covers embedded systems concepts, programming hardware and software, FPGA characteristics, HDL, and system design principles. Subsequent chapters focus on partitioning hardware and software tasks, principles of parallelism, balancing bandwidth in parallel pipelines, and communication with external networks. Key terms are highlighted for active learning.

Embedded Systems Design with Platform FPGAs

1/ 4

Overview

Organization of Book & Notes

every chapter of the book is divided


white pages are the principles and engineering science gray pages is how that knowledge is used in practice

important terms are highlighed when they are dened to encourage active learning, the handouts are missing important content present in the overhead slides (the blue/violet text between the s are missing in the handouts)
