Low price ofmicroprocessor’s components and systems, made possible the realization of remotely accessiblelaboratories, which can be used for education. Those laboratories provide students to accessmeasuring system via Internet and directly carry out real experiments without their physicalpresence.

Altera represent the two companies that currently hold the greatest market shareamong FPGA implementations. Our laboratories are mostly equipped with FPGA developmentboards from Xilinx. The Basys 2 and Spartan-3E FPGA development boards are lower endboards that we primarily use for teaching purposes. Our labs are also equipped with severalhigher end (Virtex 5 and Virtex 6) boards that are used for research purposes. However, since allthe Xilinx boards utilize the same synthesis software package (ISE software donated by Xilinx touniversities) and the same high-level descriptor language (VHDL or Verilog) to specify designs,it is relatively easy for a student to migrate from the teaching to research oriented developmentboards.Table 1 summaries some
