Ok, I've finally got Protel's Altera PLD development system up and running. Now I'm really looking forward to some solid development with the Altera EPM7032 device.
I configured the PLD compiler to produce PLA files, push the "GO" button, and found another problem. Protel's output converter for PLA files only outputs up to 254 characters; and wouldn't you know it, all pin names are put on the same line. This device has 32 inputs/outputs, so the last 12 outputs are left off the list with the first of the those last 12 cut off in the middle. Like this: #$ PINS 24 Input_1:37 Input_2:38 Input_3:39 Input_4:40 Output_5:2 Output_6:3 Output_7:5 Output_8:6 Output_9:8 Output_10:10 Output_11:11 Output_12:12 Output_13:13 Output_14:14 Output_15:15 Output_16:18 Output_17:19 Output_18:20 Output_19:21 Output_20:22 O There were suppose to be another 12 names at the end. AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!! I've done several successful designs with Protel for the 22V10. Believe me when I say that getting Protel PLD to work was never this hard before. Jeff Stout P.S. I'll send a heads up to Protel as soon as I come to grips with the work arounds I'm now going to have to do. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/proteledaforum@techservinc.com * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
