A Field programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit that is designed to be configured after manufacturing. FPGAs can be used to implement any logic function that an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) can perform. For varying requirements, a Unlike other technologies, which implement hardware directly into silicon, any errors in the final FPGA-based product can be easily corrected by simply reprogramming the FPGA. Any future updates in the final product can also be easily upgraded by simply downloading a new application bitstream. The ease of programming and debugging with FPGAs decreases the overall non-recurring-engineering (NRE) costs and time-to-market of FPGA-based products.
