Hi i am working on Xilinx FPGA Spartan 3E version i have following queries:
1. Crystal Oscillators SG8002DC/ SG8002JF
These are available with their certain frequency i-e 50Mhz in FPGA Kit as a clock generator. Can we change the frequency to our desired value? like if we want to have a Crystal Oscillator SG8002DC/ SG8002JF with 20MHz frequency..... Could it be done programmably? or We should ask supplier to fix frequency to 20Mhz? ??? or what??
2.There is VREF signal in FPGA with JTAG and this signal is connected with FPGA banks... What is this signal all about? Whats its purpose? and What if we are not using the required FPGA Banks then what should we do with that particular signal in JTAG? I have read in Xilinx Spartan3E tutorial that we should not let it unused we have to pass VREF to some other part......
