Inaugural Post

Well I've got no idea what I'm doing but hello there whoever is reading this. I'm a student getting a undergrad in electrical engineering. I also mess around with old and modern computers and build my own props. I like to learn anything I can. Right now I'll probably just talk about learning FPGAs and logic design since that's what I'm doing this semester. Not much to say yet since I only just got the DE0-CV and breadboard but I'll probably have plenty to talk about soon.

Right the big thing is just figuring out how to even do something basic with the DE0. I've been looking around for various tutorials or even basic videos that start from ground floor and teach how everything works and I've had little luck finding anything. I've resorted to actually reading the manual. First lab is tomorrow so I'll hopefully learn some basics on how to actually use Quartus.

    Nico,

     

    I agree, you need to work on your testing.  Either a larger sample size, or at least cats that are fully awake.  Maybe a mouse shaped PCB?

    Now, it's possible that the circuit board I used for this experiment is below the required standards that evoke any feline response, or that said felines were busy napping, so this test may not be statistically valid.
