Using
the APS X84 with the POD-ALYZER
FPGA: XC5202 PC84
VHDL FILE: pod.vhd
SYNTHESIS TOOL: XILINX/ALDEC Foundation Software
XILINX RBT FILE: pod.rbt
XILINX PROM FILE: pod.mcs (not needed but available)
C Code Real Time Control File: pod.cpp/pod.ide
C Development Platform: Borland C++ 5.0
EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION:
In this example we use the POD-ALYZER from Boulder Creek Engineering ( http://www.pod.com/ ) to output various patterns from the APS-X84 board and check them via the Pod-Alyzer (which incidentally looks like the XILINX XCHECKER cable). Coupled with the X84 board and XILINX Foundation software and your PC you have a complete FPGA development environment. The POD-ALYZER connects to the serial ports and runs at rates up to 100 Mhz.
