Dear all, I'm try to use VHDL code with some old XC5202PQ100-6 part that I've from my old design. Old design was did by using Foundation 2.1i and Schematic Entry, now I'm searching a way to use the VHDL coding to do some simple example and learn VHDL. My Foundation tools was only a base installation then I don't have the Express feature then no VHDL compiler will available, but I've the Synplify 9.2 tool and I can make the mapping of VHDL circuit. Now I'm asking if there is a way to export the mapped file trough the netlist description (xnf, edf) into the old Foundation and merge this device with other device into the Schematic Editor. In other word there is a way to import into the Foundation tool a device, like a black box then into the device library and then use it for the design flow implement stage? Thanks for reply. Regards Grinch
