This book is for anyone who wants to learn about how FPGAs work, their strengths, their weaknesses, and how to master these fun digital devices.
If you have no FPGA experience, or if you've done several designs, this book is full of great knowledge for you.
Thank you all for your patience while I was working on this. I'm back!

Congrats. I miss your videos. Hope you come back with them

I can highly recommend this book. I've been working through it for a couple of weeks using the Digilent Basys-3 and Arty-A7 boards together with the Vivado design suite (simply because I already had those boards & software, otherwise I would have gone for the Go-board). The explanations are clear, easy to understand and follow. So far, now at Ch. 5, no typos 😃

[@andrewkowalczyk1156]

already have it, absolutely fantastic work, I got it when I found out I'd be doing more direct FPGA stuff at work, and it has already helped me work through figuring out how to make the transition between small simple stuff and larger designs

[@clue0001]

Congratulations on your new book! I can't wait to read it. 👍🏻

[@juangarcia-bc4tq]

Just bought it. Looking forward to it!!

[@ArunCannan]

Thank you! I got them both. Looking forward to spending some time with them this year

[@justincoon7971]

this book was exactly what I needed, I actually just finished working through it a few days ago. 10/10 would recommend for anyone getting into FPGAs

[@fernandoi8958]

Wow! I'm so glad you made this I am already buying it! Congratz!

[@brianbirkinbine2054]

nice! Just ordered the book and board, thanks!

[@Kellybean214]

Already bought it! Super helpful - especially for someone new to FPGAs

[@adamtheld]

Awesome! I’m going to buy it today. I tinkered with the go board years ago and it was very beginner friendly. What a great excuse to get back into FPGAs.

[@hayfahvytsen]

I have a handful of books in my FPGA library already, but I bought this one too! Great stuff and love your videos!

[@FransSlothouber]

Highly recommended! I got a copy during Christmas and been using it together with a pico-ice FPGA board. Very easy to read and full of tips and advice from someone who clearly has a lot of practical/work experience. Many thanks for writing this book!

[@soogroggy5736]

Bought it. Great book!

[@Campo_]

Awesome book! I have it and the go board and have been working through the book for a bout a month now. Perfect for beginners in college or professionals curious about FPGAs. I highly recommend this book and your dev board!

[@mnalsder23]

Got the pre-order a few months ago and a Go board to go with it, fantastic way to learn for beginners! As a mechanical engineer with no experience nandland has been my go-to resource, thanks Russell!

[@monfry2675]

Wish you the best and for your book !

[@baconsledge]

I followed your excellent videos on fpga's and got your board a few years ago. I will be sure to grab the book.

[@TriodeTetrode]

Hey Russell. Bought your book. Really nice at first glance. I hope more videos in 2024 from you as well!

[@sombrachibi]

I'm missing new content from you Mr.Nandland! You are the best teacher I've ever seen for all FPGA-related topics. Please consider making more youtube videos! I bought your book btw.

[@APTAD03]

Thank you for all that you do! I am learning incredibly soo much from your videos and I will definitely grab a book from your web :)

[@CraigHollabaugh]

Cool beans. Congratulations on becoming an author. We knew you could do it!

[@christopherandelin]

I bought this book when it first came out and finished reading it a couple of weeks ago. I highly recommend. My only critique is that I struggled with understanding the syntax and which there was more emphasis on syntax.

[@ElectricEvan]

I learned a lot of VHDL from your site back in the day. I got the book just to return the favor, thanks. I don't understand this book was available months ago but this video is from an hour ago. One wonders what caused this latency.

[@Nandland]

Thanks for the email. I'll make the request thru my Lattice contacts for the license. Thanks for your patience and understanding, this should be fixed soon (fingers tightly crossed).

aren't you afraid many people have given up on the GO-board after the initial video's that were published? that flow dried up at some point, as I see it

Sales have literally never been better. Still going strong!
