The PoC-Library - Open-Source VHDL Component Library »Pile of Cores«

Webinar


At FPGA Conference 2025, PLC2 presented its contribution to the PoC-Library - a free and open-source platform-independent VHDL package and component library. In a series of 3 webinars, we are going to
introduce the library and its IP cores. We will present usage examples and solutions for daily problems as well as an outlook for further contributions by PLC2.

Part 1:
In part 1, we will learn about PoC's history, its design goals and aims. Besides a general overview on VHDL packages and components (IP cores), we will look at some of them in more details. One of the highlights
will be our Axi4Lite_Register, which defines the register description purely as VHDL-2008 code.

More detailed examples using our register were discussed in part 2: »The PoC-Library - Hands-On: Using axi4lite_Register in Vivado«.
Finally, part 3 has a look at PoC's synchronization primitives.

Courses offered leverage training materials specifically developed by AMD engineers and enhanced further via the specialized knowledge and expertise of AMD ATP instructors.

03. Can the training content be customized to specific FPGA and embedded design project requirements?

Yes. On request, we create customized training courses that are precisely tailored to your company’s tools, processes, and methods. See also our In-House training format.

04. Are there hands-on exercises in PLC2 training courses?

Depending on the course format, hands-on exercises are included in most of the training sessions, especially in workshops, power workshops, and online live courses.

05. How can I register for a PLC2 training course?

Go to the page of your desired training course and click the button »Book workshop«. You will jump directly to the booking form. Fill out the form and click submit. You will receive a confirmation e-mail immediately.

06. Can you help me with booking a room for the duration of my PLC2 training?

If you need a room for a face-to-face course, please contact us. We will support you in choosing suitable accommodation.

07. What times in the day do PLC2 training courses start and end?

All participants of paid courses will receive English training materials in electronic or paper form.

09. Will I receive a certificate upon completion of the PLC2 training course?

Each participant of a paid PLC2 course will receive a signed certificate of attendance at the end of the course.

10. Can I pay PLC2 training with Training Credits (TCs)?

Of course, you can also pay for your training using your available TCs (Training Credits). We will then invoice AMD directly. If you do not have sufficient credit for the booked training, the difference can be paid for with an additional payment. The additional charge will be invoiced directly to you.

11. What are the options for payment for PLC2 training?

You can pay us via bank transfer or with TCs (Training Credits). Unfortunately, payment via debit, credit card, or PayPal is not possible.
