5.
Add user logic design:
i.
Use Quartus II software to open the project generated.
ii.
Open the top level file MY_FIRST_DE3_PROJECT.v and add the following
user logic:
//=======================================
// Structural coding
//=======================================
assign LEDR = 8'hff;
// Turn OFF the LEDR0~LEDR7
assign LEDG = 8'hff;
// Turn OFF the LEDG0~LEDG7
assign LEDB = 8'h00;
// Turn ON the LEDB0~LEDB7
iii.
Compile the project to generate the SRAM Object files (.sof)
6.
Configure the FPGA device:
i.
Before configuring the FPGA device on the DE3 board, please make sure all
the boards are removed from the DE3 board.
ii.
Configure the FPGA device via the USB cable.
iii.
Check the LED status of the I/O GROUP Voltage-level Indicator. The LEDs
should be turned off because all I/O groups are disabled.
Finally, check the status of the LED0~LED7 on the DE3 board. The LEDs
should be lightening in blue.

Connect TERASIC Daughter Boards to a DE3 Board
This section describes how to create a project when connecting a DE3 board with a Terasic daughter
board via the DE3 System Builder. The DE3 System Builder will provide the following features:
The I/O standard and the pin names of the HSTC connector pins will be fully compatible
with Terasic daughter board.
The DE3 System Builder will select the correct V
CCIO
voltage level of the I/O Group for
users automatically.
An example of connecting a Terasic Multimedia Touch Panel Daughter Board (MTDB) with DE3
board as shown in
Figure 4.11
will be demonstrated. Detailed procedures are listed below:
1.
Executable DE3_System_Builder.exe on the host computer.
2.
Add a DE3 board.
3.
Configure the DE3 I/O interface:
Please refer to the
Figure 4.12
to modify the related configuration as described below:
