FPGA : A Guide to Interfacing Peripherals

FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays) are the heart of Embedded Systems. With the advantages of parallel processing and full customization while designing code for a digital hardware using VHDL(Very High speed Integrated Circuits Hardware Description Language) or Verilog, FPGAs have captured the Embedded market in their full stream. In this paper, we will understand the interfacing concepts regarding interfacing ADC0809CCN, LCD JHD162A and 7-Segment Display with XILINX SPARTAN 3e FPGA (IC XC3S500E-PQG208).
