Field Programmable Gate Array is a device. That has numerous gate (switch) arrays and can be programmed on-board through dedicate joint test. Action Group (JTAG) or on board devices or using remote system through peripheral component interconnect express(PCIE),ethernet etc.

• FPGA's are based on static Random Access Memory (SRAM). The contents of the memory of an FPGA erase once the power is turned off.
• Usually, FPGa's can be programmed several thousands of times without the devices getting faulty.
• FPGAs are programmable semiconductor devices that are based around a matrix of a Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) connected through programmable interconnects.

Features:

1. Cost optimized architecture.
2. High performance
3. Low power
4. Embedded Memory
5. external Memory Interface
