as we know that microprocessors are now a days with a lot of clock speed...
where as we see that FPGA's are restricted to MHzs
then why we say that FPGA's are more effective???

Click to expand...

Every calculation will cost one cycle of MCU at least.
But FPGA can do parallel calculation. So for some complex data stream processing,
such as FIR filter and FFT, FPGA will be more effective.

A fast microprocessors can achieve the same function, it will be more expensive than FPGA.
