The are more expensive FPGAs from Intel/Altera amd Xilinx but the tool chains are awful.<div><br></div><div>You also might want to check to see if you really want to invest in VHDL or if Verilog might be better for your needs. It doesn't hurt to know both but Verilog is more like C and is less trouble to learn.</div><div><br></div><div>Learning to simulate is a really import skill for FPGA development so you can get started with that before you have hardware.</div><div><br></div><div>73 Martin W6MRR</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Mar 13, 2020 at 3:50 PM <<a href="mailto:samudra.haque@gmail.com">samudra.haque@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div lang="EN-US"><div class="gmail-m_888027871337189871WordSection1"><p class="MsoNormal">I would like to do an experiment with an FPGA development board.
