text: wat s fpga? plz giv me a detaild answer a field programmable gate array or fpga is a semiconductor device containing programmable logic components and programmable interconnects. the programmable logic components can be programmed to duplicate the functionality of basic logic gates such as and, or, xor, not or more complex combinatorial functions such as decoders or simple math functions. in most fpgas, these programmable logic components (or logic blocks, in fpga parlance) also include memory elements, which may be simple flip-flops or more complete blocks of memories.
