Introduction to FPGA Part 12 - RISC-V Custom Peripheral | Digi-Key Electronics

[@bertbrecht7540]

I just ordered my FPGA board from Digikey. Can't wait to go back to your first episode once it arrives.

Hi Shawn, thank you for making this on-line course! I spent a week going through it. I can see that you put a lot of thought into the course.

[@joerit633]

Thank you Shawn!! This was an excellent experience! I’m hoping for a continuation into intermediate FPGA/RISC-V topics. I learned so much!!! Thanks again!!!

[@electronichome1153]

Finally I did it... It was really tough one. Thanks for the new knowledge you brought to us, Shawn!

Great video. Keep them coming.

[@Grazfather]

Great series. Disappointed to hear it's the end!

[@robertschuster2550]

Most awesome video series on programming FPGAs! It was an absolutely brilliant idea of combining it with a F/OSS CPU project at the end. One fine day in the future someone will follow this tutorial on a fully fledged Linux-distribution running on a RISC-V CPU! :D

Incredible job congrats and thanks

Thank you Shawn.......👍🙏

Very nice and clear tutorial! Thanks and congrats!

This was great.

So now I get to wait until March of 2023 to order the hardware from digikey. Sigh. Will this supply chain issue ever clear up?

how do you like your Varmilo VA87M keyboard? I have the Logitech K740 like you used to have, its nice and quiet and it has nice backlighting-- I'm just wondering why you switched? The backlight on the VA87M looks a bit dodgy compared to the K740. (or is that not your workstation)

[@ShawnHymel]

I love the VA87M. I used to have the solar-powered Logitech K750, which worked well for a few years. A few keys gave out, and I wasn't able to repair them. So, I decided to upgrade to a mechanical keyboard. Typing on a mechanical keyboard is a world of difference IMO (it's like upgrading to a Ferrari from a Ford Fiesta). However, I use Cherry MX Browns, which are pretty loud when I bottom out the keys. Office mates and people on Zoom definitely notice when I'm typing. You can fix this by adding O-rings to all the keys. The backlight is only OK. The keycaps don't have translucent lettering, so it really only glows under the keys. There's some flicker that's been happening with my new computer, but I think that's a Windows issue--I've been trying to hunt it down.

THANK YOU Shawn. This is an absolutely brilliant series; I've learned a LOT. (Truth be known, I'm still studying it and continuing to learn.) I've also been following the 'John's Basement' series, where John discusses in 'Great Detail' how he has designed and built a (physical) Z80 board. For his next project, John is planning on building "a RISC-V RV32E from the ground up in verilog" using open source tools, and he's planning on first designing and building an FPGA board, using the Lattice HX4K. The HX4K is of course, an upgraded version of the HX1K which the IceStick uses. This should be great fun. See some discussion here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eYCYh4Crrrutg6s And the full 'Z80 Retro' playlist here: kzbin.info/aero/PL3by7evD3F51Cf9QnsAEdgSQ4cz7HQZX5

Muito Obrigado

[@userou-ig1ze]

my takeaway: if you are interested in how to make a blink sketch take you an entire afternoon... use FPGAs. What do you really use them for? I mean, as a maker, what do you _really_ use it for? It's a brilliant video though thumbs up!
