Unlike SoCs, ASICs, and MCUs, field programmable gate arrays, or FPGAs, are semiconductor devices that can be reprogrammed on a hardware level after manufacturing. They are based around a matrix of configurable logic blocks (CLBs), which are connected via programmable interconnects. The interconnects can be programmed by developers to perform a specific function according to their requirements. The FPGA is programmed with a Hardware Definition Language (HDL). It allows the implementation of any combination of digital functions in order to process a massive amount of data very quickly and efficiently.
