چکیده
A use for programmable logic is presented targeting microelectronic circuit test engineering education. These devices offer strengths in cost, time and flexibility in an educational environment. The rationale for this work is to support electronic hardware design, fabrication and test for mixed-signal integrated circuits typically used in mixed-technology systems.

Synthesis of FPGAs and Testable ASICs
Industrial designers and educators who plan to design microelectronic systems (e.g. hardware accelerators, co-processors, etc.) are increasingly capturing their designs using hardware description languages such as VHDL and Verilog. The designs are then most often synthesized into programmable logic components such as field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) offered by Xilinx, Altera, Actel and ot...

متن کاملHey Fellows, We Shrunk the Server
Remote laboratories are an essential part of Webbased engineering lecturing, enabling future engineers 24/7 access to lab resources. Furthermore, they allow sharing expensive resources among multiple universities and research centres. Typical remote lab architectures feature a server, normally a computer that may serve one or more experiments. Computers are generally bulky, somewhat expensive a...
