After over 2 years of waiting Actel has finally announced ProAsic3 Flash-FPGAs with lowest price tag starting 1.5USD
They also claim Libero 6.1 supports ProASIC3
Well when I tried Libero 6.1 then it did not work for any selectable PA3 device
- and here is reply from Actal, quote
"Hi Antti, The programming file generation is disable in this version. Since, you don't have any sample part and this option is not available."
So because they (Actel) KNOW that I (Antti) do not have PA3 samples it means it is OK to ship Libero without support of programming file generation and still claim it supports PA3, because I the poor soul would not have any silicon to test with anyway?
I probably wanted to see if my STAPL player is compatible with the PA3 programming file generated, and for that purpose I dont need silicon, but need a programming file, right?
