Disadvantages

• Higher Power Consumption: Compared to application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), FPGAs generally consume more power due to their programmable nature.
• Limited Logic Capacity: While FPGAs provide significant logic resources, they may not be suitable for extremely large-scale designs that require ASICs.
• Longer Design Cycle: The flexibility of FPGAs can lead to longer design cycles as designers must consider additional factors such as timing constraints and resource utilization.

Working Principles

FPGAs are based on a matrix of configurable logic blocks interconnected through programmable routing resources. The XC6SLX100-N3FGG484C utilizes look-up tables (LUTs) within the CLBs to implement desired logic functions. These LUTs can be programmed to store truth tables or complex logic equations.

During operation, the FPGA is configured by loading a bitstream into its internal memory. This bitstream defines the interconnections and functionality of the logic blocks. Once configured, the FPGA operates according to the programmed logic, processing input signals
