Altium Designer FPGA, Software and Systems Development training (Embedded Intelligence)

The Embedded Intelligence course builds upon schematic and PCB skills established in the Schematic Capture and PCB Editing training course. Attendees are advised to have completed the Schematic Capture and PCB Editing training course (or at least be proficient in these tools) prior to attending this next level.

Embedded Intelligence is the term used to encompass all aspects of FPGA and Embedded Software domains. This course is suitable for users who wish to understand how they can tap into the benefits of FPGA based design without the pain usually associated with using these devices. No prior FPGA or programming experience is necessary. This course will have you up and running on the NanoBoard in no time with your very own FPGA-based applications.

Topics included are:

  • Introduction to FPGA design
  • Schematic based FPGA development
  • Running an FPGA design on the NanoBoard
  • Creating custom FPGA core components
  • The TASKING Compiler / Debugger tool chain
  • Utilizing microprocessor soft-cores
  • The LiveDesign paradigm
  • From FPGA to PCB
  • Pin swapping
  • Design commissioning
