Hello everyone.

I'm a very beginner wiht FPGA board like following.
http://hitechglobal.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=1&products_id=199

This board contains Virtex5 FXT. I think that I need a ISE 10.1 to
support it.
Following is what I'm think of the development procedure.

(1) Make VHDL codes for Virtex5 FXT in ISE 10.1 (?)
(2) Synthesis/Translate/Palce&Part and Simulation
(3) Download bitstream into the Chip (?)
(4) Testing

In (1), someone told me that I don't need ISE and usually if I
purchase the FPGA board, software comes along with that. is this
right?

In (3), How to configure the chip? I have never done this before.
Could you explanin the procedure of configuration?
This board has the
flash memory for FPGA configuration and storage.
But, I don't know
how to use it.

Hi KJ,

Since you are just getting started, perhaps you could have a look at some of
the videos at http://www.burched.com

Click on Free_Videos to see the first 6 (very informative) and then it's
less than $20 to view more.

Best regards,
Tony Burch
