SPARTAN 3E

[Algoet]

Hi,

Without must knowledge, I started with Spartan 3E board

Goal : weighing bridge simulator with serial intefrace and own protocol.

- Rotate knob for simulating weight change

- Serial interface with custom protocol ( PC appli pulls weight for simulator by serial protocol )

- LCD on board to display actual weight

- LED indicating 'stable weight'

- LED indicating 'Weight pulled by serial host'

At this moment I'm strugling with LCD interface

Any basic example available for LCD control of Spartan?

Thanks

NI: can you make a 'spartan sub map??'

I have be looking for the 4 data lines on the lcd.

It seems that these go via StraFlash.

But these lines are not simple booleans.

Anybody any idea??

Dear Mister Algoet,

There is a document which is actually a training session on how to use LV FPGA with the Spartan 3E board.

The following link might also be useful, this is from a lab in a Belgian school that uses the SPARTAN 3E Board with LV FPGA and uses the LCD screens as well.

Many Thanks
