P&S: iCEBreaker FPGA For IoT Sensing Systems
Last Updated: 2026-06-01 11:31:02
Abstract
The category of "Laboratory Courses, Projects, Seminars" includes courses and laboratories in various formats designed to impart practical knowledge and skills. Moreover, these classes encourage independent experimentation and design, allow for explorative learning and teach the methodology of project work.
Objective
Ultra Low Lattice FPGA – High Level Programming – Peripehrals Interfacing using an Lattice FPGA Field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is an integrated circuit designed to be configured by a customer or a designer after manufacturing , so they are also "field-programmable". The FPGA configuration is generally specified using a hardware description language (HDL), similar to that used for an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC). However more and more nowdays producers and open source community are providing higher level toolls to program them similary than processors. On the other side still it is important know the hardware architectures. This course will give to the students the opportunity to program FPGA in a high level way and use them to connect with external peripherals such as display, sensors, etc. In particular, the course will use the iCEBreaker FPGA boards that is specifically designed for students and engineers . They work out of the box with the latest open source FPGA development tools and next-generation open CPU architectures. The course will also iCEBreaker can be expandable through its Pmod connectors, so the students can make use of a large selection of third-party modules. The course will include a project where the students will learn how to build a full working system for the next generation of Internet of Things intelligent smart sensing. The course will be taught in English by the new D-ITET center for Project-based learning.
