OSS VHDL and Verilog Development on Tang Nano FPGAs

There’s some good documentation on how to get started with OSS development for the Tang Nano FPGA series, but there’s no complete tutorial for VHDL and manual compilation. This post will explain how to set up tools, use Verilog or VHDL and how to mix them, how to compile everything manually and how to program the FPGA. In addition, I’ll show how to use the PLL and how to get a blinky demo running. ...
