15 years agoHi, I'm fairly new to Altera also, and I also struggled with the examples, or should I say, with the lack of examples.
I also cannot believe that they sell a development board with almost no working examples, kind of defeats the point of using it as a learning tool. The few examples that they provide don't even work, and if you are new and self taught, it takes a lot of work to even get the examples to do anything. I mean, I am really disapointed, everytime I have bought a development board from any other company, the obvioussly come with examples for every piece of the board, but not with this one. Altera should really do something about it. Oh, and when you finally get the seven segment to work, then you'll realize there is a design flaw; the leds are bearlly visible. Did altera even test this board at all?? Anyway, if you sent me your email I'll send you the corrected example.
