Hardware description languages are good for particular problems (e.g parallel memory calculation jobs). But it is tough to handle sequential execution problems with them.

Here is some basic information about special CPLD pin functions you might need when getting started with Xilinx or any other CPLD: Global Clock (GCK) pins Many high-speed digital logic designs need a clock signal that reaches all components simultaneously.

Linear Pot - Motorized (10k linear)
Description: These motorized sliders are very cool. Each is essentially a standard slide pot which is belt-driven by a small motor. The slide contains two separate 10k audio taper potentiometers so that you can use one as servo-feedback in order to read the position of the slider and use the other to control whatever your target is. There is also a touch sense line which is electrically connected directly to the metal slider tab so that you can interface the slider with capacitive touch circuitry.
