FPGA with build-in flash

[jesslyn993]

Hi, guys.

I am a newbie to FPGA. I have learned about verilog code and done an assignment using Altera DE2 kit. I am planning to design and implement an elevator system on fpga.

I have been researching about fpga for weeks. And, here are some of my question that I wish anyone of you could help me:

1. I know that fpga does not come with built-in flash. I do not wish to use a development kit, thus I wish to know is there any other FPGA can help me with that?
2. If so, how should I burn the code I wrote into it?

Re: FPGA with build-in flash
Hi,
Each and Every FPGA kit can able to program using Read Only Memory. So use ROM memory.

Use a Microsemi part if you want a non volitle FPGA.

Lattice Semiconductor also have FPGA's with built-in Flash. The actual FPGA logic is SRAM-based and can be reloaded with a volatile configuration. The next time the power is cycled, the non-volatile configuration in Flash will be loaded again.

You should also look at Altera MAX 10 and (old) Spartan-3AN series, also MAX V for simple applications.
