A field-programmable gate array (FPGA), which consists of memory, programmable logic gates, and other components, is generally involved in digital-circuit design. FPGA settings are typically defined using hardware description languages (HDLs), such as VHDL and Verilog, much like that of application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) configuration. You can modify the current configurations and add any new functionality or application requirements when needed.
FPGAs can be used in many consumer applications like cameras, smartphones, autonomous vehicles, image and video processing, and security systems. In the corporate realm, FPGAs are widely used in various industries, including servers, medical electronics, and military equipment.
