PROGRAMMABLE LOGIC DESIGN: QUICK START HANDBOOK •<br />

Navigating This Book<br />

This book was written for both the professional engineer who has never<br />

designed using programmable logic devices and for the new engineer embarking<br />

on an exciting career in electronics design.<br />

To accommodate these two audiences, we offer the following navigation<br />

section, to help you decide in advance which sections would be most useful.<br />

C HAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION<br />

Chapter 1 is an overview of how and where PLDs are used. It gives a brief<br />

history of programmable logic devices and goes on to describe the different<br />

ways of designing with PLDs.<br />

C HAPTER 2: XILINX SOLUTIONS<br />

Chapter 2 describes the products and services offered by Xilinx to ensure<br />

that your PLD designs enable a time-to-market advantage, design flexibility,<br />

and system future-proofing. The Xilinx portfolio includes CPLD and FPGA<br />

devices, design software, design services and support, and IP cores.<br />

C HAPTER 3: WEBPACK ISE DESIGN SOFTWARE<br />

Xilinx WebPACK ISE design software offers a complete design suite based<br />

on the Xilinx Foundation ISE series software. Chapter 3 describes how to<br />

install the software and what each module does.<br />

C HAPTER 4: WEBPACK ISE DESIGN ENTRY<br />

Chapter 4 is a step-by-step approach to your first design. The following<br />

pages are intended to demonstrate the basic PLD design entry implementation<br />

process.<br />
