I wanted to know that , just like a Microcontroller can we have a Programmer circuit for an FPGA.
I am new to FPGA and right now I am working on Spartan Starter Kit to program FPGA.
Just In case of Microcontroller, we purchase it and using a programmer circuit we burn hex file to it and then we use it in our circuit. So is this possible to have similar process in case of FPGA. Like we get FPGA ic from market and using some programmer circuit (W/o any kit like Spartan) we burn bit file to it and then simply put FPGA into our circuit ??????
May be I am wrong, but I never saw a small circuit of FPGA instead always seen people working on spartan kit.
Thanx In Advance
