Overview of Lookup Tables (LUT) in FPGA Design

17/04/2019, hardwarebee

FPGAs are reconfigurable chips that are made up of individual logic blocks, each of which is composed of a flip flop and a Lookup Table (LUT).
 

 
You might have heard of the Lookup table (LUT) being referred to here and there and wondered what it does. if you
