World's 1st FPGA Centric Portal goes LIVE!!

FPGA Central is the central place to find complete information about
FPGA Vendors, FPGA Products, IPs, FPGA Events, FPGA News and so much
more.

Field Programmable Gate Array aka FPGAs is a semiconductor device
containing programmable logic components called "logic blocks", and
programmable interconnects. They are especially popular for
prototyping integrated circuit designs. Once the design is set,
hardwired chips are produced for faster performance. Its flexibility
and low cost of implementation is the key factor for its success.
Inspite of its gaining popularity over other semiconductor devices
such as ASICs, Full Custom chips and Processors, there was no place to
find all FPGA related information on the Internet. FPGA Central
(http://www.fpgaCentral.com) aims to solve that problem by bringing
all FPGA related information under one central location and more.

FPGA Central is a vendor neutral place to find everything about FPGAs,
CPLDs, EDA Tools for FPGAs.
"There are websites which either provide FPGA Blogs or small list of
links from around the web, but none of these sites provide a complete
portal for FPGA users. FPGA Central is created to provide a central
place for FPGA Vendors & Users to share experiences and information
about FPGA Design, Development, Verification, Validation, Process,
Tools and Products."

The sites major feature includes:
* Largest FPGA Vendor Directory (over 450) - (http://
www.fpgacentral.com/vendor/directory)
* Vast Product Directory (over 800) - (http://www.fpgacentral.com/
product/catalog)
* IP Catalog (over 750) - (http://www.fpgacentral.com/ip/catalog)
* Find FPGA Events around the world - (http://www.fpgacentral.com/
event)
* FPGA Discussion Forums - (http://www.fpgacentral.com/forum)
* Latest FPGA News & Press Release
* FPGA Jobs listing

"We are enhancing user experience by providing Reviews & Ratings of
all the listing on our web site. The users are encouraged to discuss
their problems and share thoughts."

And this is just the beginning, over next couple of months FPGA
Central plans to add more features to help users to make more
informative decisions and vendors to showcase their products. It is a
WIN-WIN situation for all.

For a limited time all the VLSI enthusiasts around the world can WIN
FREE gifts like iPod, T-shirts, FPGA books & more. All you need to do
is register for a FREE account with FPGA Central.
