Xilinx Logic Handbook

[John]

I would like to obtain a hard copy of the Programmable Logic Design Handbook (featuring FPGAs and CPLDs). I cannot find one listed on the Xilinx web site, though I might have missed it. The downloadable pdf probably works for most people, but I prefer having a book to thumb through. Thanks, <BR>

John, the last time Xilinx printed a data book covering all our
programmable devices was in the year 2000. After that, we have decided
to mainly rely on the web, on DataSource CDs, and on single-family
printed books. Our product lines have expanded so much, and the
technical evolution is so fast, that big printed books are incomplete or
obsolete the moment they leave the printing press.
A CD may be you best choice, and I can send you the newest one (600 MB,
equivalent to several thousand printed pages) if you e-mail me your
snail-mail address.

Forgot to reply first time around, and can't find the original
posting, but... if you don't mind paying money you could try these
people: http://www.printme.com/

They will take a PDF from you and ship a booklet to you.

Haven't used them myself (they won't ship outside the US currently -
so they might not be any use to you either)

If you decide to use their service, I'd be interested in finding out
how they do!

Thanks for the run. It's fun to look at the old data
books from time to time. All the way back to the one
with 'counter examples' ;-) An increase in clock speeds
can be detected.
