Dynamic FPGA reconfiging using microcontroller

This post is applicable for the USB Scanner design

Next test for the USB Scanner design is reconfiguring an FPGA using a microcontroller. The test setup uses the Spartan III board, which is connected to one of the microcontrollers of the RS232 Scanner Prototype. The microcontroller will at power-up re-configre the FPGA. This saves the need for an (expensive) PROM or a JTAG interface.
