TOP REVIEWS FROM FPGA CAPSTONE: BUILDING FPGA PROJECTS
This specialization has a very good balance between deepness and breadth of transmitted knowledge. Thank you !
Requires knowledge of FPGA design flow (make sure to take 3 courses before this one), great practical tasks that complete the whole specialization.
In general a good course structure and content. It lacks support on question and exercises.
