Building example designs
########################
Before building any example, set the installation directory to match what you
set it to earlier, for example:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: export-install-dir
export F4PGA_INSTALL_DIR=~/opt/f4pga
Select your FPGA family:
.. tabs::
.. group-tab:: Artix-7
.. code-block:: bash
:name: fpga-fam-xc7
export FPGA_FAM="xc7"
.. group-tab:: EOS S3
.. code-block:: bash
:name: fpga-fam-eos-s3
export FPGA_FAM="eos-s3"
.. group-tab:: K4N8
.. code-block:: bash
:name: fpga-fam-qlf_k4n8
export FPGA_FAM="qlf_k4n8"
Next, prepare the environment:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: conda-prep-env
source "$F4PGA_INSTALL_DIR/$FPGA_FAM/conda/etc/profile.d/conda.sh"
Finally, enter your working Conda environment:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: conda-act-env
conda activate $FPGA_FAM
.. tip::
You will need to run the commands for setting the path and source of your conda environment
each time you open a new terminal. You will also need to activate the Conda environment for
your hardware before you attempt to build your designs. It might be a good idea to add the
above commands to your ``.bashrc`` either as default commands that run each time you open a
new terminal or aliases to save yourself some repetitive typing.
.. note::
If you don't know how to upload any of the following examples onto your
development board, please refer to the Running examples section.
.. note::
Make sure you have executed all the above commands, or otherwise you may encounter errors when
building the designs.
Xilinx 7-Series
===============
Enter the directory that contains examples for Xilinx 7-Series FPGAs:

cd xc7
Then, follow the guidelines for each example:
.. toctree::
xc7/counter_test
xc7/picosoc_demo
xc7/litex_demo
xc7/timer
xc7/pulse_width_led
QuickLogic EOS S3
=================
Enter the directory that contains examples for QuickLogic EOS S3:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: enter-dir-eos-s3
cd eos-s3
Then, follow the guidelines for each example:
.. toctree::
eos-s3/btn_counter
QuickLogic K4N8
===============
Enter the directory that contains examples for QuickLogic K4N8:
.. code-block:: bash
:name: enter-dir-qlf_k4n8
cd qlf_k4n8
Then, follow the guidelines for each example:
.. toctree::
qlf_k4n8/btn_counter
