Abstract

Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are very versatile devices. A typical FPGA consists of an array of configurable logic blocks and a mesh of interconnections fully programmable by the user to perform a given application. By just changing its internal connectivity, the FPGAs can implement a totally different new function.
