Additional Design Details
R
After programming the SPI Flash, remove jumper JP8, as shown in Figure 12-16(a). If
properly programmed, the FPGA then configures itself from the SPI Flash PROM and the
DONE LED lights. The DONE LED is shown in Figure 12-3, page 92.
Additional Design Details
Figure 12-18 provides additional details of the SPI Flash interface used on the Spartan-3E
Starter Kit board. In most applications, this interface is as simple as that shown in
Figure 12-1, page 91. The Spartan-3E Starter Kit board, however, supports of variety of
configuration options and demonstrates additional Spartan-3E capabilities.
Shared SPI Bus with Peripherals
After configuration, the SPI Flash configuration pins are available to the application. On
the Spartan-3E Starter Kit board, the SPI bus is shared by other SPI-capable peripheral
devices, as shown in Figure 12-18. To access the SPI Flash memory after configuration, the
FPGA application must disable the other devices on the shared SPI bus. Table 12-3 shows
the signal names and disable values for the other devices.
