How can I get:

How-to: Programmable logic devices (CPLD)

Already assembled? If not how can I get a usable

board with all it’s documentation?

Please Advise.

Thank You

I have not got my software up and running to start programing the XC9572 is there a thread on building your logic circuit using the ISE software . Would be interested in seeing a few pictures of this software before i spend a few dollars in buying it .

Great overview on CPLDs. However, I hate half standards. The JTAG interface is standardized but the connector is not. I have more than seven different JTAG cables. Of course, each device has own software :)

Yeah, that link doesn’t work for me either, has anyone got a working link? Or are they able to create one for those of us that missed it and want to build one of these?

Thanks,

Steve

doesn’t work. does anyone know where I can download bitclone.v1.zip?
Many thanks

i need the list of commercial examples for cpld and fpga

thank you

just wanted to mention Altium are shipping an entry level fpga dev board which includes a 1 year licence to their fpga dev software for around the $400 mark, which might be worth considering as their software is great.

Nice article :)

I’ll have to look into playing with this.

I want to do FPGA too but so far it’s been too expensive for me to get into just for playing around.

It looks like CPLD is related enough to give me some idea if I want to spend the money on FPGA and at a nice low price too.

Is the system clock just on a general purpose I/O pin on the CPLD??

I don’t normally comment on blogs but your post was a real help. Thank you for a great topic, I will be sure to bookmark your site and check it out again. Cheers, Amy xXx.

Most PLD vendors offer free tools for their low cost CPLD and FPGA families. The more recent CPLD families from Lattice and Altera are more like mini-FPGA with lots more logic than previous CPLD families.

hi,

I have a xilinx XC7532XL cpld.I had sent a programme my cpld,then I could not erase this programme from my cpld.Do you know what I can erase it.

I got this look alike error message “erase protect device”

You should in stand alone erase mode.I dont know to set my cpld for this situation.
