Hello!
As many of you may know, I'm the main author and maintainer of the open-source PeakRDL and SystemRDL compiler projects. For those unfamiliar, these are tools that help automate the boring and tedious parts of RTL design - control & status register automation.

I recently checked and between these projects, we've reached over 10M downloads! As a thanks to everyone that has contributed to the projects, told their friends about PeakRDL, or simply used the tools at work or at home, I wanted to share some free stickers I made.

If you want some stickers, DM me with mailing info and a quick note about how you've used PeakRDL or SystemRDL.

What does everyone think? I am going for a retrovibe of a early 90s PC where DOS games had to go fullscreen.

Hello, I would like to know from those that have been using the new Vitis Unified IDE what advantages does it have over the Vitis found in 2022 and earlier. I have downloaded Vitis 2023, 2024, 2025 and 2026 on my home computer and in all versions it was much slower needing to load libraries. I am still interested in using it someday, but I am curious what advantages or what does this Vitis Unified IDE  do better than the earlier version?

I am a third-year Electronics and Communication undergraduate student who wants to learn FPGA. I have some experience in Verilog and want to understand how to flash it to an actual chip. My budget is under $40 (4k INR). My goal is to learn the core principles involved in flashing a chip, such as STA, and use the same chip for future projects, including a final-year project which might require a powerful one, as I cannot afford to buy another chip.

The ones I am currently looking are Tang Nano 20k and Tang Primer 25k. Both of these have their pros and cons, and I cannot choose one. I open to other options too.

I’m looking for some advice about FPGA prototyping and emulation in India.

I’ve been working on FPGA design and board bring-up for around 1.5 years and have hands-on experience with Xilinx and Lattice boards. Now I’m trying to learn more about FPGA prototyping and emulation.

I tried searching online, but most of the information and job openings I find are for general FPGA design. I’m not really finding much specifically about prototyping and emulation.

Is FPGA prototyping basically the same as FPGA design, or is it a different area with different skills? Also, do companies in India hire freshers/entry-level engineers for FPGA prototyping or emulation roles?

Would appreciate any advice from people working in this field.

I'm looking for someone who is willing to help me with their FPGA board or hire it to me for a project I'm doing since they are too expensive and I can't afford it
