For background, the majority of my experience as a student has been in analog electronics. My overall goal is to become an excellent mixed-signal circuit/system designer. To do that, this summer I want to put focus on digital circuit design. I plan on reading a lot into the topic, but are there other effective ways I could get some experience in this field? I’ve considered getting an FPGA to practice digital design, but I’m not sure if it applies to what I want to learn.
Thanks.
**EDIT: It seems that FPGA is the way to go. Digilent has some good FPGA options an I'm specifically looking at the Nexys A7. It costs $265, but with academic discount you can get it for $200. It seems like a board with a lot of potential and capabilities. Also, I've read that the documentation is pretty good. Will definitely look into this more. Thanks for the help.
