I'm Jorge an Electronics Engineer who want to buy the Basys 3 FPGA for the first time. I took some FPGA subjects at the University and I did some practical stuff using a Spartan 3 FPGA and Nexys 2 through ISE design suite. Now I want to have my own FPGA to continue learning myself and do some crazy stuff.
Basys 3 description sais that it is not supported by xillinx ISE, so the only possibility is to use it through Vivado. My big doubt is: should I buy the 'Vivado Design Suite Voucher' together with the FPGA?? It is only 10$ difference. What is the difference between buy it or no? Can I generate the bytestream in Vivado without having the voucher?
Finally, if I buy the 'Vivado Design Suite Voucher', when does the license finish? Should I buy 2 vouchers?
Is it posible to use Vivado Voucher license in 2 pcs? my home pc and my laptop.
Thanks for the help, I'm still quite new with this kind of programs and licenses. Up to now we used the ISE web pack.
