MyHDL is a Python module that brings FPGA programming into the Python environment. [Christopher Felton] tipped us off about a simple tutorial he just finished that gives an overview of how the modu… ...

If you’ve ever wanted to jump into the world of FPGAs but don’t want to learn yet another language, you can now program an FPGA with Python. PyCPU converts very, very simple Python code into ...

This requires special skills, languages, code rewrites and tuning. Until now, high-level languages such as Python are not optimized for this type of computation.
