Hi there,
I am relatively new to Xilinx FPGAs. While going through its user guide, I came across several inbuilt components in the IC viz. clock buffers, DCM's and Block RAM. I want to try using these resources. So my query is: does anyone know how to use these inbuilt components. I am looking for small practicals to start of with (I read the 3 chapters painstakingly but could not think of any use of these resources ).. I also searched the net but am confused as to what is what. I will be grateful to anyone who can give me any small practicals to understand these components. (I have spartan 3 XC3S400 and I code in VHDL).
Also, I want to know which is the simplest FPGA in Xilinx family to have inbuilt ADCs and DACs (like inbuilt ADCs ... in uCs). Upto Spartan 3 there are no onchip ADCs and DACs.
Thanks,
Arvind Gupta.
