Title: TE0320-00ev02IB board working with the simulink toolbox
Post by: shirleyhenderson on October 04, 2023, 12:02:25 PM
Hello, I am wondering some questions and need your help. Is TE0320-00ev02IB board able to work with the simulink toolbox? Do you have any example for me to kick start.

Thank you in advance.

Hi,
I would say it's not possible, see this old requests with Spartan 3:

Hi,
you could simply have the HDL code generated for other device and if it is not encrypted, adjust it to be compatible with Spartan 3. The question is whether it is worth the effort. Spartan 3 is EOL anyway, which means you should develop on newer devices.
