C programming for FPGAs

C programming for FPGAs involves writing code in the C language to configure hardware components instead of traditional software execution. Unlike standard computers, FPGAs are programmable chips that can be customized to perform specific tasks efficiently. By using specialized tools, C code is translated into hardware descriptions that set up the FPGA's internal circuitry. This approach allows developers familiar with C to design high-performance, tailored hardware solutions without deep knowledge of low-level hardware design, making FPGA development more accessible while maintaining efficiency and flexibility for applications like signal processing, communications, and embedded systems.
