Preloaded FPGA Bitstream (FPGA image, SPI Flash)
TE0630 comes with SPI Flash preloaded with a reference design?
Those preloaded image is just for getting started demo, for real designs:
- it is expected that these image could be replaced by the customer;
- it is expected that these image could be used by the customer as starting point.
Preloaded USB Firmware (FX2 USB microcontroller, EEPROM)
TE0630 comes with FX2 USB microcontroller's firmware.
The modules shipped before 2/09/2013 comes with Generation 2 firmware. [PCN content replication, please remove]
The modules shipped after 2/09/2013 comes with Generation 3 firmware. [PCN content replication, please remove]
To change the firmware of EEPROM from generation 2 to Generation 3 you must follow this procedure. You may also watch this video play list. [content replication, link to original]
Those preloaded firmware is used with TE API ... . [content replication, link to original]
custom FPGA design: programmable logic
We recommend to download and install the standard Xilinx development tool to develop and debug a custom programmable logic design. License fees may apply when designing with larger devices or debugging with advanced tools. Same conditions apply when modifying the programmable logic of the reference design.
