XSA-100 Software

The software that the XSA-100 is needed to program the board is the Xilinx WebPACK. That will contain tools for programming their Spartan-II FPGAs. You can obtain the most resent version of the WebPACK on the Xilinx Webpage.

XESS Corp. also develops XSTOOLS which is additional utilities for getting your XSA Board and PC to interface. XESS sells the XSTOOLS CD for $1. You can order it online, here. The cd contains...

However both these utilities should be installed on each of the ECE 345 lab computers. You do not need to purchase and install them.
