spartan 3an flash programming

Hello All,

I have a question regarding programming the Spartan 3AN. I have a bit
file that I would like to program on my board, and would like to run
every time I turn on the FPGA. I know it can be easily done, but I
just don't know the process.

Thanks,

Start impact with a jtag dongle connected to your board, and when the 3AN is
recognized in your jtag chain. click right on the device. There is an option
(in recent impact versions) to program the on-chip flash.
Be sure the FPGA Mode pins are connected right. Check UG332.
