The rule set is broad. The ones I lean on most:

I have been writing a set of technical reports on the internals of Fuchsia, Google’s capability-based microkernel operating system, aimed squarely at electrical, RTL, and FPGA engineers rather than at kernel hackers. This post kicks off a series in which I walk through the reports one volume at a time, roughly one a month. The whole set is a fourteen-volume reference; the complete PDF is linked at the bottom of this post, and each future post will take one volume and put its PDF in front of you.

Interviews for FPGA and digital-design roles draw from a stable, well-defined body of knowledge, yet candidates routinely stumble on it because the questions are asked crisply and must be answered under pressure. I am publishing a preparation guide for exactly that situation: a 29-page report, “The FPGA Hardware Interview”, organized as a sequence of topic reviews, each followed by interview-style questions with model answers and, for the design topics, coding exercises solved in both VHDL and SystemVerilog.
