available at the bottom of the page.
3. Extract the RD5V01_00.ZIP file to a directory on your PC. The location is
arbitrary but the path prior to where you extract the .ZIP file must not exceed 82
characters due to the Windows 250-character total path limitation. For example,
this 90-character preceding path would be an example of a path that would be
too long:
C:\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\
0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\RD5V01_00.ZIP
(This path is too long.)
In addition, the Xilinx tools require the path to not contain any spaces.
C:\Do Not Use Spaces In The Path\RD5V01_00.ZIP
(This path has spaces.)
For the purposes of this document, it will be C:\designs\maxim\RD5V01_00\.
