Hi all !!, my name is Alberto. I'm a very begginer in FPGA's. Most experience in microcontrollers. I'm trying to learn some about this, with the Altera DE2 board. I'm trying to test SDRAM cod...

Honored ContributorThe Terasic demonstration examples are a matter apart. They are hopefully operational as such, but they are almost unsuitable to learn about FPGA programming, as they lack any comment or general description.
As far as the code is basically functional, it can be understood, but without any comment, it's a bit like reverse engineering, I think. It's probably more fruitful to take an example from a textbook and write the code from the scratch. Really annoying. Some years ago, I implemented a SDRAM controller from an Altera VHDL reference design and it's still used in various applications.
