LabVIEW FPGA and Xilinx boards & kits

[LukasN]

Hello, I need to find out what Xilinx Boards & Kits are directly programmable from LabVIEW FPGA software. I didn't find any consistent information on this topic

[Christian Mergl]

Hey,

Only National Instruments FPGA Hardware is programmable with LV FPGA!

Hello, thanks for your reply... BUT I am sure that there exists some xilinx kit directly programable from LabVIEW FPGA. I saw it in Germany on NI-VIP days 2007, but I had no opportunity to ask for more (there was nobody at the presentation stand). This kit was named SPARTAN-xx(?). I thought that there will be more information on the web, but I found only one page on this topic and this page is dedicated to VIRTEX FPGA http://www.xilinx.com/xlnx/xebiz/designResources/ip_product_details.jsp?iLanguageID=1&key=ni_labview...

Hey!

Thats right, but the official release of this spartan kits will be in december, until that...my first post will be the "state ot the art".

I would suggest you to call the German office under 0 (49) 89 7413130 and talk to someone from the internal sales or academic department to get some informations about the spartan kits!

Thank You, Christian. I will do it.

Thanks, I'll keep my eyes open.

(I just wasn't sure if you were talking about a NI newsletter, Xilinx newsletter, or Digilent newsletter, etc.)

I just figured out there is another way of seeing the academic newsletter;
