Welcome to the iCEBreaker FPGA workshop repository.

iCEBreaker workshop sessions

Supplies needed

  • Computer
  • Micro USB cable (make sure it is a data cable not just a charge cable)
  • iCEBreaker
  • iCEBreaker 7Segment display
    • You might need one or two displays depending on the workshop you choose.

Note: In most cases we provide the iCEBreaker hardware for the duration of the workshop. You will have to return it after the workshop is over. Make sure to read the specific workshop instructions. We usually also have extra hardware you can purchase so you can keep hacking on it and take home. Also refer to the workshop instructions of how to get the hardware or ping @esden on twitter.

Toolchain installation

Follow the instructions on the fomu-toolchain README to install the FPGA toolchain on your computer.

I am ready let's GO!

Now that you have all the supplies and the toolchain installed go ahead and clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/icebreaker-fpga/icebreaker-workshop.git
cd icebreaker-workshop/stopwatch

In the stopwatch directory you will find the workshop guide PDF. Follow the instructions inside the PDF. If you happen to do the workshop as part of an organized class the helpers are here to help you out when you have questions or you get stuck somewhere. Do not hesitate to ask for help, this is why we are here.
