Help about designing of FPGA's

[eramardeepsingh]

Dear all friends

Please anybody suggest me in which software the designing of FPGA's can be done. I can design USART on FPGA, Multiplexed display controller on FPGA, CRT controller on FPGA. Please help me to suggest proper software to do all the lab work

You can either use the vendor tool like Xilinx ISE or Altera Quartus II or a third party tool

Well, I know of 2 reasonably good free ones: One as mentioned above is Altera Quartus :http://www.altera.com/download/software/quartus-ii-we
the other one is Actel: Downloads: Libero IDE

both are pretty good and I don't see any drawback for either one in comparison to each other.

Xilinx ISE webpack though free is little slower in comparison to the above two which don't downgrade too much.

Are you planning on buy a development board?

If so checkout:

For Xilinx FPGAs, **broken link removed**

For Altera FPGAs, Terasic Altera FPGA Development Boards

Or, KNJN Inexpensive Altera FPGA Boards

Here's a nice tutorial site with FPGA projects:

FPGA4FUN

Hope the info helps in your endeavors.
