Career in FPGA

Hello Everyone, I have been interested in FPGA and started learning from "intel learning".

I have completed a bachelor's degree in EEE. I was confused as I am in the beginning stage. So please help  me by answering the following questions:

1. Should I start my journey in VLSI with Quartus without other software like Cadence or Xilinx?

2. Will FPGA rather than ASIC be a good choice for beginners?  

3. Should I focus on projects or research to get a job in VLSI fields?

Hi,


Apologies for internal technical issue/glitches.


Please find inline answers to your queries-

1. Should I start my journey in VLSI with Quartus without other software like Cadence or Xilinx?

  Yes, you can use Quartus Tool for your VLSI project with HDL coding in Verilog/VHDL. Quartus tool is from the Intel-Altera and Xilinx is having their own tool.

  

2. Will FPGA rather than ASIC be a good choice for beginners?  

  Yes, for beginners start with the FPGA.


3. Should I focus on projects or research to get a job in VLSI fields? 

  I suggest you to get the certification on VLSI from technical/research institutes. This might help you to get the job.


Regards

Tiwari
