8. Step 7: Program the FPGA.

What is Spartan 3E FPGA?

The XA Spartan®-3E FPGA is the world’s lowest cost logic optimized full feature platform of five devices with system gates ranging from 100K to 1.6M gates, and I/Os ranging from 66 to 376 I/Os, with density migration.

What is FPGA and Verilog?

Verilog is a Hardware Description Language (HDL) which can be used to describe digital circuits in a textual manner. We will write our design for FPGA using Verilog (as if you write microcontroller programs in C and Assembly). VHDL is also another popular HDL used in the industry extensively.

What is in Verilog syntax?

Verilog provides 4 basic values, a) 0 — logic zero or false condition b) 1 — logic one, or true condition c) x — unknown/undefined logic value. Only for physical data types. d) z — high-impedance/floating state. value — Any combination of the 4 basic values can be digits for radix octal, decimal or hexadecimal.

What is FPGA architecture?

FPGA Architecture FPGAs are prefabricated silicon chips that can be programmed electrically to implement digital designs. The first static memory based FPGA called SRAM is used for configuring both logic and interconnection using a stream of configuration bits.

What is full form of FPGA?

It is an acronym for field programmable gate array.

How do you do and in Verilog?

The result of a logical and (&&) is 1 or true when both its operands are true or non-zero. The result of a logical or (||) is 1 or true when either of its operands are true or non-zero….Verilog Logical Operators.

Operator	Description
a && b	evaluates to true if a and b are true
a || b	evaluates to true if a or b are true

How do I start coding in Verilog?

1. Introduction.
2. Data Types.
3. Building Blocks. Verilog assign statements. Verilog assign examples. Verilog always block. Combo Logic with always. Sequential Logic with always. Verilog initial block.
4. Behavioral modeling. Verilog for Loop. Verilog case Statement.
5. Gate/Switch modeling.
6. Simulation.
7. System Tasks and Functions.
8. Code Examples.

How to read binary text file in FPGA using Verilog?

For Verilog code, you can use $readmemh (for hexadecimal data) or $readmemb (for binary data) command to load a converted binary/hexadecimal text file directly. Example Verilog code for loading a text file or an image into FPGA using $readmemh: here. For VHDL code, the TEXTIO package provides necessary commands to read binary text files.

How to implement designs on Spartan 6 FPGAs using Xilinx?

Xilinx offers two different tools for implementing designs on Spartan 6 FPGAs depending on your workflow choice. They offer ISE for conventional workflow and EDK for Embedded System workflow. In the former case, all code will be implemented in RTL code such as Verilog/VHDL.

How to generate block memory in Vivado using Xilinx FPGA?

If you are using Xilinx FPGA, use the Core Generator in Xilinx ISE or IP core in Vivado to generate a block memory with the initial content as the text file or image-converted binary text files. The initial data file must be in .coe format. A sample .coe file is here.

Where can I find the example design in Verilog?

The example design can be found (unsurprisingly) under the folder example_design. There are a few folders and files inside the example_design folder. rtl folder has all the Verilog files generated by MIG. par folder contains some batch files and scripts to build the example design.
