It includes general information on how to use thevarious peripheral functions included on the board. For detailed reference designs,including VHDL or Verilog source code, please visit the following web link.• Spartan-3A/3AN FPGA Starter Kit Board Web Pagehttp://www.xilinx.com/s3astarter and http://www.xilinx.com/s3anstarterThere are multiple versions of the Spartan-3A/3AN FPGA Starter Kit. This documentdescribes the three kits that include the “Revision D” Spartan-3A/3AN FPGA Starter KitBoard, which is an updated version of the “Revision C” Spartan-3A FPGA Starter KitBoard. The following table describes the different kits.Almost all functionality is identical between the Revision C and Revision D boards,although the silkscreen changes make the two boards look different. The pictures used inthis document are from the Revision D board. If you are using the original Revision Cversion of the board, refer to UG330 for pictures and documentation.
