I have been waiting to get the spartan 3e starter kit from xilinx for awhile now, but it doesn't seem to be out yet. Does anyone know if they are still look at releasing it this month as they mention on their website?

I've been looking at the Xilinx Online Store and the digilentinc site and have seen nothing. The only order entry I've seen was from distribution and I didn't trust it to do any better than the first two sources. I'm talking 3e starter kit, not the sample pack.

That sounds like possible date. Yesterday I did see one Spartan3e starterkit board at Silica's boot at Embedded in Nurnberg. They only have that one board so will be shipping as soon as they get the boards. Antti

A schematic would show what's needed... -- Uwe Bonnes bon@elektron.ikp.physik.tu-darmstadt.de Institut fuer Kernphysik Schlossgartenstrasse 9 64289 Darmstadt --------- Tel. 06151 162516 -------- Fax. 06151 164321 ----------
