Tofiks 1.2.0

Must read the previous blogs about Tofiks 1.1 1.0 first :)

Do you know of any attempts of using FPGA logic in chess engine evaluation? I recall the main object in 8x8 chess are the chess planes (with one piece of some colour - for each piece) and the main thing interesting is multiplication of these planes against the oponent's piece bit-planes, perhaps all these in-depth captures could be simulated by some simple and fast digital pipeline?
