Even though the volume of information and solutions available that focus on low cost based microcontrollers is quite vast, FPGA and SoC do not have as many resources readily available despite being essential for critical applications and also those in which higher speeds for data processing are required. Not only that, but the high cost of development boards, discontinuity between contents taught in higher education and knowledge required in practical fields, and overall lack of learning resources all add difficulty to any professional looking to specialize themselves in this field of knowledge. It is for this reason that this work proposes an Open Platform for Digital Design Learning on FPGA-based Systems, which looks to facilitate the learning process for any student or professional that wants to get started in this field. For this purpose this work proposes the following: a low-cost development board alongside a set of learning tools and examples which can fit both self-taught students and lecture-based learning environments, and the creation of a national collaboration network to give support to students and teachers who want to join and participate in the project. En los sistemas embebidos, se puede encontrar una gran variedad de aplicaciones basadas en diferentes tecnologías: microcontroladores, FPGA, System on Chip (SoC), entre otras. Si bien, el uso de microcontroladores y el volumen de información y soluciones disponibles de bajo costo basadas en esta tecnología son predominantes, el uso de sistemas basados en FPGA y SoC es imprescindible para ciertas aplicaciones, sobre todo aquellas que son de carácter crítico y/o requieren una elevada velocidad o capacidad de procesamiento de datos. No obstante, existen factores que dificultan la formación inicial de profesionales en esta área de la electrónica digital: el costo relativamente elevado de adquisición de placas para aprendizaje, la falta de recursos didácticos, la falta de continuidad entre los contenidos de las carreras de grado y los que se requieren para abordar esta área, entre otros. Por ello, en este trabajo se propone una solución concreta a este problema de enseñanza-aprendizaje: una placa de bajo costo inicial conjuntamente con una plataforma de herramientas pedagógicas para el autoaprendizaje o el dictado de clases y la formación de una red de colaboradores a nivel nacional para dar soporte a los estudiantes y docentes que se incorporen al proyecto. application/pdf text/html http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/116 10.37537/rev.elektron.4.2.116.2020 spa FIUBA http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/116/199 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/view/116/213 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/downloadSuppFile/116/101 http://elektron.fi.uba.ar/index.php/elektron/article/downloadSuppFile/116/124 Copyright (c) 2020 Martín Alejandro Heredia, Facundo Santiago Larosa, Ramiro Adrián Ghignone, Federico Alejandro Vázquez Saraullo, Hernán Pablo Mendes Gouveia http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0 Elektron; Vol 4, No 2 (2020); 58-63 Elektron; Vol 4, No 2 (2020); 58-63 2525-0159 FPGA, VHDL, Verilog, Embedded Systems, SoC FPGA; VHDL; Verilog; Sistemas Embebidos; SoC Open Platform for Digital Design Learning on FPGA-based Systems Plataforma Abierta para el Aprendizaje de Diseño Digital sobre sistemas basados en FPGA info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion http://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=elektron&d=116_oai
