To teach digital design efficiently, advantages of the technology should be taken into account. In this paper, an overview is given how hardware description languages (HDL) and field-programmable gate arrays (FPGA) are used at Tallinn University of Technology in digital design education in various related courses. The courses are taught for IT-students with different background - computer engineering, electronics, etc. Observations made and experiences learnt from running the courses over few years are described.
