Firmware
Today we started looking at the VHDL firmware programs from Ben Raydo at JLab. Our goal: To determine what the general description of the firmware program is and determine an outline of its functionality.
Quartus II
Quartus II has a fairly good tutorial for usage. My goal is to complete this tutorial by the end of the week.
I also started to familiarize myself with the VHDL programming language.
