Hi there! I'm starting to read your ebook and noticed that you propose to use the Papilio One and the Logicstart Megawing as a developement board. I'm pretty new to FPGA so I was wondering if your ebook also applied to the Papilio Pro too since that's what I bought with a Logicstart Megawing? I know that Papilio One is a Spartan 3E and the Papilio Pro is a Spartan 6. Does it make a big difference?

 

Thx!

I've been going through the projects on a Papilio Pro.

 

You will need to pay attention to the hardware configurations when creating your projects, and pin numbers differ.

Other than that I have run into no problems.

 

Here is the pin map I've been using: http://papilio.cc/index.php?n=Playground.PapilioPinouts
