Question

Mark an unambiguous T (True) or F (False) for each of the following statements.

a. DRAM is the most used programming technology for an FPGA.
b. The Artix 7 XC7A35T contains 5200 logic slices.
c. 1_OUT is a valid signal name in VHDL.
d. A behavioral VHLD description describes the flow of data in a circuit.
e. SELECT is a valid input signal name in VHDL.

Answer 1

DRAM is not the most used programming technology for an FPGA, The Artix 7 XC7A35T does not contain 5200 logic slices, 1_OUT and SELECT are valid signal names in VHDL.

Step-by-step explanation:

a. F (False). DRAM stands for Dynamic Random-Access Memory and is a type of semiconductor memory used in computers and electronics, not a programming technology for FPGA. A popular programming technology for FPGAs is Verilog or VHDL.

b. F (False). The Artix 7 XC7A35T contains 33,650 logic cells, not 5200 logic slices. Logic slices are the basic building blocks of Xilinx FPGAs.

c. T (True). 1_OUT is a valid signal name in VHDL. Signal names can contain numbers, letters, and underscores, but they must start with a letter or an underscore.

d. T (True). A behavioral VHDL description describes the flow of data in a circuit. It defines how data is processed and transferred within the circuit, without specifying the physical implementation.

e. T (True). SELECT is a valid input signal name in VHDL. Signal names can be any valid identifier as long as they follow VHDL syntax rules.
