It's time to make some project for testing on MachXO2 7000HE Breakout Board. Let's begin with something simple like a count up counter. Let's see...



Working Platform :
Lenovo Notebook , Intel Pentium Dual Core T2080 1.73GHz
2Gbyte RAM
Ubuntu Ubuntu 12.04.3 LTS

Let's do it
1.Start Diamond and make new project.
create new project.
Select device

2.Make new VHDL file and write VHDL code for the counter.
VHDL code
3.Click on Process tab then right click on "Place and Route Design" and select Run.
Place and Route

4.Next, Select on Spreadsheet tool and assign pins for the design.
set Clock for pin 69
set Output[0] for pin 97
set Output[1] for pin 98
set Output[2] for pin 99
set Output[3] for pin 100
set Output[4] for pin 104
set Output[5] for pin 105
set Output[6] for pin 106
set Output[7] for pin 107
You need to connect pin 69 to push switch that connected other side to the GND. Pins assignment

5.Save the spreadsheet and check the pins assignment at impl1/source/simplecounter_imp1.lpf
Check pins

6.On Precess tab, tick on the JEDEC file and run the process.
make JEDEC file

7. When the synthesis process was done, download the JEDEC file into the board. That is. Enjoy your simple counter.
