7 years agoYou need to know that you don't write software for FPGAs. You design hardware and thus the way you think about it needs to change. Maybe you can use the processor part of the SoC, but I am not familiar with Altera/Intel SoCs. If so you might postpone the HDL coding till after the link setup. If you want to learn HDL I reccommend you read a/some books. I don't know if there is a good first-step resource on the web.
