Who are the experts?

Tnt is well known in the open source FPGA community, and one of his most recent & impressive demonstrations of his mastery was running doom on an ICE40 FPGA. He also taped out an open source USB stack on MPW1.

Whitequark has been involved with the open source EDA tools since their foundation, and has made many contributions to the toolchain, as well as Amaranth - a high level design language. Recently she designed the Glasgow interface explorer and posted a great thread on digital design over on twitter.

Pricing

Pricing is challenging to get right, as depending on your financial situation, $240 may sound totally reasonable or out of the question. I am trying an experiment with the pricing for this call to make it more accessible.

If you can, please pay full price for the call. If not, then I have 2 sets of discount codes:

  • 4 codes that give a $160 discount. Use code DIGI160,
  • 6 codes that give a $80 discount. Use code DIGI80,
  • Please only use the codes if you are unable to pay the full price.
  • Check your email for information on how to join the call after your purchase.
  • Receipt provided upon purchase for deducting as a business expense.
