NB2DSK01 - Configuring an FPGA Project Automatically

Although an FPGA design project targeting the Desktop NanoBoard NB2DSK01 can be configured manually – by adding a configuration, assigning the required board constraint files and creating a mapping constraint file by hand – the process is greatly simplified through use of an auto-configuration feature.

Using this feature, a target configuration for the FPGA design project is automatically created. The required board-level constraint files are then automatically determined and added to this configuration, based on the hardware (motherboard, daughter board and peripheral boards) detected in your system. An additional board mapping constraint file is also generated and added to the configuration, which handles connection of the satellite boards detected in the system (daughter board and any peripheral boards), to the main motherboard.
