Nice, can you share what you're using FPGAs for? Always interested to learn more use cases for FPGAs.
So far I've seen finance applications, video encode/decode and hardware testing.
FPGAs are used in a lot of places, where you need custom logic circuits. Some of the applications I've seen:
- Lots of test equipment uses FPGA, since it requires a lot of fast and custom data processing, and volumes often do not justify spinning specialized silicon (unless you are one of the really big players, like Keysight or Textronics).
- A lot of SDR (Software Defined Radio) boards use FPGAs, for ease of implementation of complex sample processing pipelines.
- Cell phone infrastructure
- Radars
- Crypto mining
- Retro gaming and retro computing boards use FPGAs to implement old CPUs and logic chips.
- New chip prototyping, e.g. hacking RISC-V architecture.
- MCU hacking and glitching
- Hobby and professional prototyping
- Research (I've seen FPGAs used in research of hardware implementations of cryptographic algorithms)
- Crypto cracking
