FPGA - The Ultimate Flex by Asianometry provided an excellent overview of these Anti-ASIC chips.
The Basys 3 FPGA Board¶
As one afflicted with the GAS disease, I immediately ordered an FPGA development board as soon as it was mentioned in class. Yay, one more toy to buy that will end up sitting in a drawer for years untouched.
Looking through Amazon, I was surprised at the range of boards and prices available. How are they different? What features do the cheaper ones lack that the much more expensive ones have? No idea, I covered all the bases and bought one inexpensive one and one relatively expensive one. Let’s pretend that money does grow on trees.
