(4) User website spotlight for December. Altium DXP / Nexar design software

formatting link
BurchED boards can be used with the Altium DXP / Nexar design software, by connecting Altium's Universal JTAG Interface. Have a look at DXP / Nexar - it is a serioulsy powerful design environment for FPGA design (just turn a blind-eye to those other develolpment boards while you are there:):) ).

(5) How are your latest FPGA projects going? As always, we are interested to hear about your latest FPGA projects and applications. Please drop me a line, any time, at snipped-for-privacy@burched.com.au

Hey

At Altiums homepage there is a PDF with 3rd party boards, it acutally tells that all 3rd party board can be used, as long as there is a full connected parrellel port on it :)

i have a spartan 2 board from coreworks, and i works nicely with protel/nexar, both soft and hardware chain.

if anyone have that board i have a 90% finished libery(with softjtag) to protel for that, just drop in a mail..
