Hi,
As your guess from this post im a newbie to VHDL so any help you can offer is great.
Im intending to implement a 'Digital Phase Locked Loop' in VHDL using the 'Alliance Toolkit' for Linux. My question is, once I've got my VHDL code fully working how can I get it into the FPGA? I have an FPGA evaluation board which connects to the PC via the parallel port, the FPGA on the board is Spartan XCS10 (I understand that the FPGA is volatile, at this stage that doesn't matter).
Is the process of loading a program into the FPGA via the parallel port a simple process? Do programs exists which will do it for me?
At the moment im stuck on this, so thanks for any pointers or advice,
Craig
