NewANADOLOGIC Hardware Academy is live: 240 free, AI-graded FPGA & SoC questions.Start learning

News3 min read

Can you explain the difference between setup and hold time in an interview? Practice FPGA and digital design questions for free, with AI grading in seconds.

ANADOLOGIC Hardware Academy is a free assessment platform for FPGA, digital design and embedded systems engineers. No long lectures: you go straight to the questions, answer in your own words, and AI grades your answer within seconds.

Watching a concept is one thing; being able to explain it is another. The goal is to learn a concept well enough to explain it in an interview or on a project.

How It Works

  • Pick a track and open the first question. You can view questions without an account.
  • Write your answer in your own words. Grading needs a free account (sign-up takes about 20 seconds).
  • Get your grade within seconds: Correct, Partially correct or Needs review.
  • See which concepts are missing, plus a sample expert answer.
  • Stuck? Open a hint. It points the way without giving the answer and does not affect your score.
  • Think a grade is wrong? Dispute it. Every dispute is read by a human.
  • Earn XP (Correct = 100 XP, Partially correct = 50 XP). Progress is saved to your account on any device.
  • My Work shows your next step and the concepts still open.
  • Recall checks bring learned concepts back after 3, 7 and 21 days.
  • Random tab: new AI-generated practice questions at Junior or Senior level.
  • A Leaderboard for every track.

6 Tracks Open Now: 240 Questions

Each track has 4 modules and 40 questions across 2 cycles, from basic definitions to interview level.

  1. Digital Design Fundamentals
  2. HDL Mastery (VHDL, Verilog & SystemVerilog)
  3. FPGA Fabric Architecture & Primitives
  4. High-Speed I/O & Physical Interfaces
  5. Static Timing Analysis (STA) & Timing Closure
  6. Multi-Vendor Ecosystem Comparison

Coming soon: Bare-Metal & RTOS, and Embedded Linux SoC.

For Companies: First-Round Technical Interviews

The same setup can run the first round of your technical interviews online. Candidates answer at their own pace, every answer is graded against the same criteria within seconds, and the final decision still rests with a human. ANADOLOGIC can tailor the questions, expected level and grading criteria for your company or institution.
