To add to this: Xcell is the name of Xilinx's self-published journal(s), and it's free. Here's the Xcell portal: http://www.xilinx.com/about/xcell-publications.html http://www.xilinx.com/about/xcell-publications.html Here's a short article published in Xcell by Niklaus Wirth after he designed and prototyped a RISC CPU on a Xilinx FPGA: https://issuu.com/xcelljournal/docs/xcell_journal_issue_91/30 https://issuu.com/xcelljournal/docs/xcell_journal_issue_91/3... And finally, it's worth noting that the most recent post on the Xcell blog is one titled "Found! A great introduction to FPGAs", which was written just a couple days ago and is a glowing recommendation for the textbook "Digital System Design with FPGA: Implementation Using Verilog and VHDL". https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/Xcell-Daily-Blog/Found-A-great-introduction-to-FPGAs-Digital-System-Design-with/ba-p/797803 https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/Xcell-Daily-Blog/Found-A-great-...
