Ask a Developer Demo: How to Implement a Sensor Interface on FPGAs

Starting out with FPGAs is daunting. And that's just the fundamental concepts of hardware description languages (HDLs). What about when you're tasked with using an FPGA for what it was designed for? Something like creating a hardware interface in FPGA fabric where one didn't exist before?

With great power comes great responsibility, and DevHead...

Alright devs!
I'm looking forward to this week's Engineering Hour more than most so far. It's on Bluetooth Classic versus Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), where @Umesh Lokhande will be reviewing and comparing key concepts from each technology before rolling into a live demo (as he always does on Engineering Hour).

• You can find more details about the session and sign up by clicking 'interested' here: https://discord.gg/YRrdDqrd?event=1229438688732119050

• If you have specific questions you'd like Umesh to answer around Bluetooth, BLE, or similar, jump into the https://discord.com/channels/1130679493799977062/1212286094830477323 channel and navigate to the "show chat" bubble in the upper right to reveal our running discussion board. Drop your question in there and we'll answer it on Sunday, 4/28 during the session (if not before).

See you Sunday at 15:00 GMT! Can't wait!

wafa_ath•4/28/24, 11:40 AM

Since today engineer hour is about Bluetooth... Am curious

Which type of Bluetooth do you primarily use in your IoT projects?

A-Bluetooth Classic
B-Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE)
C-I use both regularly
D-I don't use Bluetooth in my IoT projects (if so, why not?)

And What factors influence your choice of wireless communication protocol for an IoT project? (Select all that apply)
1-Range
2-Power consumption
3-Data transfer rate
4-Security
5-Cost
