PLC2 Training Format
Easy Start: FPGA- and MPSoC-based Courses for Beginners
Our two-day Easy Start training courses, which have been successful for years and are in great demand, were developed to make it easier for »newcomers« among FPGA and MPSoC users to get started in the FPGA/MPSoC field and to train and support them in the use of the technology. This training series is also suitable for project managers, team leaders, and group leaders.
The focus of this training format is on practical application with modern FPGAs/MPSoCs and less on the theoretical basis. The participants will be professionally guided by our experienced PLC2 experts to implement their own FPGA/MPSoC projects in order to take the first steps towards independent development of complex FPGAs/MPSoCs. Deeper theoretical foundations are taught in other training courses.
Easy Start in a Nutshell
Perfect for newcomers and technical project managers
