Does anyone know if the Xilinx CIC core will work in the Spartan 3? It's not listed as a target (only Spartan IIE) but then the data sheet is dated 2002, wheras S3 apparently was announced in 2003...
Xilinx CIC core in Spartan 3?

You will need to select the device type in coregen as a spartan IIE, generate the core, and use the resulting .edn netlist in your S3 design. CICs use basic, non-device specific primitives (adders, counters, registers etc ....). When I first ported my first DSP FPGA from a SIIE to S3 two years ago, there was a moment of panic when I saw CICs were not supported. I think this is just a deficiency in the GUI that has never been resolved. -- Regards, John Retta Owner and Designer Retta Technical Consulting Inc. email : jretta@rtc-inc.com web : www.rtc-inc.com <cs_posting@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:1180536814.626509.110470@p47g2000hsd.googlegroups.com...> Does anyone know if the Xilinx CIC core will work in the Spartan 3? > It's not listed as a target (only Spartan IIE) but then the data sheet > is dated 2002, wheras S3 apparently was announced in 2003... >
