thanks for your quick reply ..really appreciate. could you please name one board pls,,,there are so many from xilinx and altera. and what is the difference between starter board and development board.
Xilinx University Program
the link above is about the Xilinx University Program
the board related to this program might be a good choice,
cause you can find lots of reference and examples which will do you great help
Hi,
You can see this link Altera Development and Education Boards, it is very useful. I think it is suitable for you to start studying. You can buy the board DE2, for example.
Good luck.
Xilinx Spartan 3E Starer Kit is a very good choice for beginners. It has lots of peripherals that allows easy experiencing. The kit has very good documentation and example codes in xilinx's web site.
Sticking with the xilinx spartan-3E theme, I'd recommend this nexys2 board. I own one of these myself (1200k gates version) and find it easy to work with.
