buy yourself an FPGA development board, play with it...

refer to the various reference designs on the internet, try it out...

since u are a fpga design engineer... u will master it after few years... :p

anyway, read a few books like <VHDL Programming by Example 4th Ed - McGraw Hill> and <Circuit Design With VHDL, V. A. Pedroni; MIT Press> is a good start... strong fundamental is very important...

regards,
sp

books...read lots of books
u'll find tons here on edaboard if u search

and do some applications such as those in xilinx site:

**broken link removed**

get the free ISE webpack software from the xilinx site also:
but first register here:

**broken link removed**

and of course get a development kit to see ur designs for real:)

best of luck,
Salma:)

Hi,

Learn the Basics of programming Languges like VHDL. U can get lot of material online in regard to this. Once u get an Idea of how to program using VHDl try to model Basic Digital designs on ur own so that u can understand the problems while coding, then u can try to design more complex designs.

As a starter dont straight worry abt the FPGA architectures now itself once u get an idea of how to model the designs u can study abt the FPGA architectures.

hi,
my suggestion is
Practice a lot
try to implement different designs by using any ISE evaluation version from Xilinx
Practice only makes man Perfect !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
