Two dev boards into one: a STM32 based Arduino ("Maple Mini" compatible) and a Cyclone II FPGA dev. board to start playing with VHDL/Verilog. It is also "Multicomp" compatible ("Multicomp" is a modular VHDL design to "run" some famous retro 8 bit CPUs made by Grant Searle giving the option to "run" easily a VHDL SOC with a Z80/6809/6502 CPU and I/O, including HD on SD and a color VDU).

-
QuartusII Project: in this folder there are the Quartus II projects examples for the Cyclone II FPGA. They are generally paired with a given Arduino Sketch (.ino file) for the STM32.
-
QuartusII Multicomp: in this folder there are the Quartus II Multicomp projects for the Cyclone II FPGA. These Multicomp have been already adapted to run inside the "The Thing" board "out of the box" ("The Thing" board HW design requires some little adaptations from the original Multicomp design reference). They could be paired with a given Arduino Sketch (.ino file) for the STM32 and with a given SD image for HD emulation.
-
STM32 Sketch: in this folder there are the "sketch" examples (.ino files) for the STM32 Arduino. They are generally paired with a given Quartus II project example or a Quartus II Multicomp. See in the QuartusII Project or QuartusII Multicomp directory to know which Quartus II project they belong to.
-
SD images for Multicomp: in this folder there are the SD images for HD emulation related to the Quartus II Multicomp projects for the Cyclone II FPGA. They are paired with a given Quartus II Multicomp project. See in the QuartusII Multicomp directory to know which Quartus II Multicomp they belong to. To write the SD image into a SD card, unzip the image file and simply copy it to your SD card using the Win32 Disk Imager.
