For LX9 and Nexys-3

Detailed Steps: Downloading the Example/Demonstration Application

1.

Opening the SDK

a.

From the Windows Start Menu, Open the Xilinx SDK as shown below

.

b.

SDK will prompt for a workspace directory, the location where the software project is located. This

directory is generally a subfolder within a Xilinx ISE/EDK project and will include board support files, as
well as (.c) and (.h) files. Be certain to choose the correct Workspace directory. For this project, it will be
C:\Designs\maxim\v1_4\sdkWorkspace (as shown below).

c.

Click OK to the prompt shown above and SDK will open. The Xilinx SDK is based on an Eclipse-based IDE,

so it will be a familiar flow for many software developers.
