A field-programmable gate array (FPGA) is a semiconductor device containing programmable logic components and programmable interconnects. The logic is commonly implemented as look-up tables that is read in encrypted form from external non-volatile memory each time the FPGA boots. The function of the FPGA is usually defined using languages like Verilog and VHDL.
