Hey all....
...am putting together a simple board consisting of an FT232 (USB-
schemmys for the 3a board from Avnet, however, that board (and most eval boards I've seen) have more complex setups than I need and is difficult to discern which elements to rip out. Basically, I just want the simplest possible design since my processing will just be communicating with a PC via USB. So besides power, I believe all I need is the above, correct?
I could use some help, or example schemmys if you know of any, which are easier to copy from than the eval boards which are multiplexing multiple external flash/eeproms to program the fpga in multiple ways. I just want a simple serial download from a simple flash or eeprom. I think I can handle connecting up the FTDI chip to the fpga since that's application specific. I guess what I need specifically, is a simple schemmy on how to connect a programmer flash to a spartan 3a to program it on power-up...or any simpler solution you can think of...
please let me know of how I can be more specific...am just getting started with this and can use all the help I can get...
thanks a lot!
