Xilinx has a helpful free publication, the Programmable Logic Design handbook. This quick start guide introduces their line of CPLD and FPGA devices and the basic steps to program development using their ISE Webpack. A listing of application notes and reference designs is included.
Download your own copy of this 144 page PDF.

The link to the “144 page PDF” Logic Design Handbook seem to be broken.
Would like to download your handbook please …
Thanks … JCD
