Need Help Making a Custom .bit File for 5i20 was created by BartyBorris
I am trying to make a custom .bit file for my mesa 5i20. I have followed the instructions at
LINK
, which went smoothly. I installed Xilinx-ISE version 9.2.04i (with the service pack 4). When first opening up the project, two files are flagged as missing (see screenshot attached): irqlogic.vhd and dpll.vhd. I found references to this issue searching the web, but the only suggestion I could find was to download the latest firmware from
LINK
, which I did, but the files are still missing. If I ignore the messages and continue: modified the Top9030HostMot2.vhd file to use (uncomment) work.i20card.all and work.PIN_SVST2_8_72.all; (yes, I commented out --use work.@Card@.all; and --use work.@Pin@.all), change synthesis options to speed (instead of area) and try to generate a programming file I get many errors... the log is attached. Eventually I want to make a customized version of PIN_SVST2_8_72.vhd, but I want to at least get the original working first! Any help you can provide would be really appreciated.

Do you have a pin and card file defined in the top level file?

Yes. I believe so: use work.i20card.all; and use work.PIN_SVST2_8_72.all;
I am very new to this, so please be patient if this is not the answer to your question.
Thanks

Just checked, it appears to be there. See attached screen shot.

I'll have to take a look at the project file sometime next week
I dont do much with ISE9 anymore so the 5I20 stuff is probably a bit out-of-sync
you could also try the source at linuxcnc.org and their build scripts
for a simple config like you have they are up-to-date enough

I was successful creating a bit file with customized pin assignments using the latest snapshot from
LINK
to get the source/scripts that you suggested. I ended up using ISE version 10.1 due to some strange errors with 9.2 that I never did figure out (appeared to be related to ISE). Now I only need two 7i42TA breakout boards instead of three
Thanks PCW.
