We discuss the unique capabilities of programmable logic devices (PLD's) for
experimental quantum optics and describe basic procedures of design and
implementation. Examples of advanced applications include optical metrology and
feedback control of quantum dynamical systems. As a tutorial illustration of
the PLD implementation process, a field programmable gate array (FPGA)
controller is used to stabilize the output of a Fabry-Perot cavity
