FPGA Design Elements

Copyright (c) 2019-2024 Charles Eric LaForest, PhD.

A self-contained online book containing a library of FPGA design elements and related coding/design guides.

You can read it online at https://fpgacpu.ca/fpga/

To obtain your own local copy:

git clone https://github.com/laforest/FPGADesignElements.git

then access index.html from your favourite browser.

All files are in one directory, so you can use it as a library in your CAD tools by simply importing all Verilog files.

IMPORTANT: The module definitions are, by design, not usable as-is. Unless the design requires some minimum or constant value, all module parameters have a default value of 0 or an empty string. This is intentional, so when a user forgets to set a parameter when instantiating a module, synthesis will (almost always) fail, and linting also. Putting usable default values in the module definitions might not get noticed and cause bugs. This means the modules are not synthesizable as defined, but must be instantiated separately to set the parameters, which is what one normally does anyway.

See LICENSE for the details, but overall, you are free to use this book as you please.
