Test Your Dec to Bin Conversion Skills with Your FPGA

https://youtu.be/5AtFMXq4ihQ Hello FPGA enthusiasts! Today’s project takes you back to school where you learned the binary system. The author has designed a decimal to binary conversion game using FPGA. It is time to see if you did pay attention in class! The game uses a random number generator which generates any number between 0 and…

MULTICOMP Z80 CP/M migrated to the Papilio Duo Platform!

Hello Papilio fans today we got an awesome project to share with you! Our forum member jlcollado has managed to migrate the Grant Searle’s brillant work called MULTICOMP to the Papilio DUO, the final result is a very usable and complete Z80 soft-core based machine, running the venerable Digital Research CP/M 2.2 OS. I’ve built the Z80 CP/M variant, complete with VGA & Keyboard…

Build Your Own Globe of Persistence with FPGA

Hey there FPGA lovers! The human eye is far from being perfect, and this imperfection helps us in coming up with a lot of ideas and products (take the television for example!). Today’s post exploits the Human eye’s persistence of vision to build a globe of persistence using FPGA. These globes can be used to…

How to Build an Arcade Obstacle Avoidance Game Using FPGA

Hello FPGA innovators! Remember the arcade obstacle avoidance game where blocks of pixels fall on you and you steer clear of them moving left or right? Today’s project attempts to re engineer the same game using a VGA and FPGA. Here, a pseudo random code is used to generate obstacles that fall down and buttons…
