Getting Started with CPLDs
What is a CPLD? A CPLD is a combination of a fully programmable AND/OR array and a bank of macrocells. The AND/OR array is reprogrammable and can perform a multitude of logic functions. Macrocells are functional blocks that perform combinatorial or sequential logic, and also have the added flexibility for true or complement, along with varied feedback paths.

ESL Microsite @ Xilinx
Electronic System Level (ESL) design refers to evolving design and verification methodologies that begin at a higher level of abstraction than the current mainstream Register Transfer Level (RTL). Many of the ESL design languages are closer in syntax and semantics to the popular ANSI C than to hardware languages like Verilog and VHDL. A key focus of many of the ESL tools for FPGAs is to empower designers with software programming skills...

Xilinx PCI Express Solutions Microsite
While PCI™ and PCI-X™ use parallel buses, PCI Express® version is a general-purpose serial I/O interconnect that can be leveraged for communications, embedded, storage, server, mobile, and desktop applications. It can also be used as a peripheral device interconnect, a chip-to-chip interface, and a bridge to other standards such as 1394b, USB2.0, InfiniBand™ and Ethernet. Why use the Xilinx solution for PCIe? Implemented in 65-nm...

overview

Xilinx: Getting Started with FPGAs
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are programmable semiconductor devices that are based around a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs) connected via programmable interconnects. As opposed to Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) where the device is custom built for the particular design, FPGAs can be programmed to the desired application or functionality requirements. Although one-time programmable (OTP) FPGAs are...
