What is FPGAs?

FPGAs (Field-Programmable Gate Arrays) are integrated circuits that can be configured by a designer after manufacturing. They are commonly used for implementing custom digital logic, prototyping ASICs, and accelerating specific algorithms due to their reconfigurability and parallel processing capabilities. Unlike microprocessors, FPGAs are not instruction-based; instead, they allow the designer to implement the specific logic circuits required for a task, offering high performance for certain applications.
