Spartan 3E config - maxascent - 2007-11-08 09:27:00

Hi

Does anyone know if it is possible to configure a Virtex 4 using a Spartan3E. I want to connect a Flash memory to the Spartan and set this to be themaster.  Once configured I want the Virtex 4 that is the slave toconfigure.

Cheers

Jon

This is possible with a parallel flash using Spartan-3E BPI mode.  See
Xilinx UG332, Master BPI Mode, Daisy Chaining.
