Bits and Bytes of Life
This has been my long time wish of understanding the crt0.S code of an embedded project. This piece of assembly code does setup environment to run your C main() function of application. This is at pretty low level. I assume that reader has low level understanding of CPU. We need to

This is my attempt to make a simple digital logic circuit using FPGA. So I have used DE0-nano FPGA Kit and 7-segment LED display lying idle in my collection. I have used standard libraries than building my own counter and 7-segment decoder circuit. The design comprises of two major units.

Recently I was looking for a simple FPGA kit to play with building hardware of choice, ended up buying DE0-nano FPGA Kit. The DE0-Nano board has a simple FPGA development platform to develop from a simple electronic circuit to NIOSII CPU based embedded system. It has Cyclone IV E device with 22,320 LEs. The DE0-Nano
