Well, still working on the DE2 board. Have been making some progress since last week. At the moment, got a few VHDL modules working and started to program the board in Handel-C. Started off with simple program on Handel-C just to turn on some LEDs with the switch, now trying to port a VHDL LCD module in Handel-C. Got it to display something, well all zeros…

If you happen to be working on the DE2 board as well, you might also be looking for more examples in VHDL and Verilog. Here are some sites which I find very useful, hope you find them useful too:

• DE2 Verilog examples (contains a few examples written in Verilog with source code)
• Altera DE2 Board Resources (This is the site which I found most useful, most examples in VHDL)
• Rapid Prototyping of Digital Systems Quartus II Edition (A very useful book where the source code can be found on the following link)
• The software update page for the book above (Very useful programs, source code developed into modules)
• Photos of DE2
