Description

Are you ready to dive into the fascinating world of FPGA design? This time you will be learning UART communication in a fun and practical way. Welcome to "Learn FPGA Design by Practice: Image transfert with UART", a hands-on course that combines digital design, communication protocols, and creativity!This course is perfect for students, engineers, and enthusiasts eager to enhance their FPGA skills and explore the practical implementation of UART. Through engaging lessons and a real-world project, you'll design a communication system between a computer and an FPGA board.An image will be transferred from PC to FPGA via UART pixel by pixel. The colors of each received pixel by FPGA will be inverted then sent back to computer. Python will be used to open the serial link between PC and FPGA and convert exchanged bytes into displayable PNG image.Here's what you'll gain:Strong Fundamentals: Understand UART protocol.Hands-On Experience: Implement a fully functional image transfer project via UART on FPGA.Practical Knowledge: Learn VHDL and follow the whole FPGA design flow from specification to on-board testing.With clear explanations, and detailed demonstrations, this course ensures you build confidence and proficiency in FPGA design. Whether you're a beginner or looking to level up your skills, this course offers a fun and rewarding experience.As usual, I am going to share everything I know about the topic and give you my tips as a senior hardware engineer.

Who this course is for

Beginner Digital Electronics students and engineers or anyone interested in learning FPGA design
