    <p>You are comparing chalk and cheese. Xilinx is a company, not a chip and Arduino is an open development platform based on Atmel AVR microcontroller.</p> <p>Also 'a chip' alone is probably useless to you; it will have to be assembled onto a development board with subsidiary components and power supplies etc.</p> <p>Xilinx make FPGAs and other programmable logic devices. It is possible to have an FPGA with a hard or soft core processor embedded (i.e. a processor defined in FPGA logic gates), and for that core to be programmed in C, but if you are starting out, how many balls do you want to juggle at once? Such a core will be useless without the ability also to synthesize the peripheral hardware necessary to make it do something useful. They are used in highly specialised applications where the core and peripheral set need to be tightly coupled to the application. They are often used in applications where standards are still under development (such as wireless communications), where both firmware and software may need to change in-field to support changes. Another use of FPGAs is in directly implementing algorithms in hardware to take advantage of the parallelism and pipe-lining that they make possible offering massive acceleration compared to software solutions..</p> <p>While Arduino, or more specifically AVR (there are other AVR development platforms available) can be programmed in C and C++, if you are serious about using C++ in embedded systems, a 32-bit platform may be more appropriate (as well as having performance advantages). A development board based on an ARM Cortex-M3 or ARM 7 would be a good start, especially since ARM is also a common choice for soft-core processors on FPGAs if you eventually progress to that.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
