Components of the Design
There are three components in the system: a PLL, a counter and a mux. The components, in the
following steps, will be built separately and then connected together. A user push button on the
board controls the mux. The mux in turn control which of the counter outputs (slow counting or
fast counting) will be shown on the LEDs. There are different ways to create components, such as
RTL or schematic. In this lab, schematics will be used. There are also different ways for entering
schematics such as Qsys and IP Catalog. This lab will focus on the IP Catalog.
