Programming FPGAs: Getting Started with Verilog | |
Take your creations to the next level with FPGAs and Verilog
This fun guide shows how to get started with FPGA technology using the popular Mojo, Papilio One, and Elbert 2 boards. Written by electronics guru Simon Monk, Programming FPGAs: Getting Started with Verilog features clear explanations, easy-to-follow examples, and downloadable sample programs. You’ll get start-to-finish assembly and programming instructions for numerous projects, including an LED decoder, a timer, a tone generator―even a memory-mapped video display! The book serves both as a hobbyists’ guide and as an introduction for professional developers.
? Explore the basics of digital electronics and digital logic
? Examine the features of the Mojo, Papilio One, and Elbert 2 boards
? Set up your computer and dive in to Verilog programming
? Work with the ISE Design Suite and user constraints files
? Understand and apply modular Verilog programming methods
? Generate electrical pulses through your board’s GPIO ports
? Control servomotors and create your own sounds
? Attach a VGA TV or computer monitor and generate video
? All source code and finished bit files available for download
Dr. Simon Monk has a bachelor’s degree in cybernetics and computer science and a Ph.D. in software engineering. He is now a full-time writer and has authored numerous books, including Programming Arduino, 30 Arduino Projects for the Evil Genius, Hacking Electronics, and Fritzing for Inventors.

This book is one of two beginner books that I would highly recommend. The other is David Romano's Make: FPGAs: Turning Software into Hardware with Eight Fun and Easy DIY Projects. In fact, if you can afford it, I say by both. Both books are very similar. Both use Verilog as the HDL of choice. Both have projects that are worthy of following along with. Both Require minimal cost in a development board unless you want to complete all projects in the book(s). Both used Xilinx WEB ISE. Simon's book discusses the VGA video aspect of a couple of the FPGA development boards. Simon's book does a slightly better job of explaining step-by-step, David's book covers more in depth details of Xilinx Web ISE. David's book covers SDR in on project. I started out with the Zynq 7000 as a target FPGA platform but decided that the Spartan 3 and Spartan 6 would be good to understand as well due to the number of projects, books, and kits available. In the ended I purchased 6 different FPGA development boards ranging in price from about $30 to $900. Clearly I have the motivation to get totally absorbed in this subject and come from a PLA/PLD/Bitslice (geez did I just date myself?) background. Both books coupled with the Zynq Book The Zynq Book: Embedded Processing with the Arm Cortex-A9 on the Xilinx Zynq-7000 All Programmable Soc and the associated Zynq lab book The Zynq Book Tutorials for Zybo and ZedBoard are serving me well.
This book is like the "Hello world" of FPGAs. It's probably pretty great if you've never touched an FPGA or Verilog before. If you have, even a single module, you may not get much out of it. I didn't realize it was this basic. I'll probably be returning it. (The subtitle even says "Getting Started", so I should have guessed...)
Exactly what I needed to demystify a very scary-seeming topic. Dr. Monk gives you exactly what you need, and conveys it in a very approachable style. Simon is a renowned author, and proves it once again with this book. I highly recommend it as the FIRST book you should read if you are new to the world of FPGA programming.
As someone else already posted make sure you have the shields to go along with the board. I have the Mojo board and got to chapter 3 only to realize it was written with the Mojo IO Shield in mind(the shield is currently out of stock).
Very informative on Verilog.
