From Wooden Boards to White Gloves: How FPGA Prototyping and Emulation Became Two Worlds of Verification… and How the Convergence Is Unfolding

From Wooden Boards to White Gloves: How FPGA Prototyping and Emulation Became Two Worlds of Verification… and How the Convergence Is Unfolding
by Lauro Rizzatti on 04-13-2026 at 6:00 am

From Wooden Boards to White Gloves Table 1 (1)

FPGA prototyping and hardware emulation originated from two independent demands that emerged at roughly the same time, namely, the necessity to implement digital designs in reconfigurable hardware. This was conceivable given the newly introduced field programmable gate array (FPGA) device.

Yet from the very beginning they… Read More
