Abstract :
Reconfigurable computing has grown to become important in hardware design. In autumn 2005, we taught for the first time a new course in digital system design with its main focus on FPGA technology and design using VHDL. This paper reports about the various issues dealt with including what topics to cover, text book selection, lab exercises etc. A summary of the students feedback is also included.
