Hi everyone, I just bought myself a Terasic DE0 Atlas-SOC board because I'd like to explore the possibilities of OpenCL FPGA programming. I've done some VHDL at university once but found it t...

I had a look at the file but wasn't quite sure whether the additional OpenCL license was obtainable for free or not. I guess that's a no then. I must have misunderstood the fact that there is an OpenCL mandelbrot example for that board out there: https://rocketboards.org/foswiki/projects/openclmandelbrotdemoonatlassoc That homepage does have a link to a BSP for that AtlasSOC board further down. It might have been developed by a 3rd party though. That was proof enough for me to believe that OpenCL was possible on that board. Hence I bought it. So in short: There really is no easy and cheap option for a newcomer like me to get his hands dirty with OpenCL on an FPGA?
