content: Hello to everyone.This is my first post in EEVBlog and want to learn more about CPLDs and FPGAs. I found Lattice MachX02 in video blog used to drive led matrix and i was like... I wanna replicate this...But sometimes Murphy's law kicks you from behind. I'm not sure if I do something wrong or they have problem with web page... It seems to be not possible to download their software. If anyone have experience please share because $50 are going in a trashcan.

content: Seems like this is the way to do it, tell us what specifically fails if it doesn't:1. Go tohttp://www.latticesemi.com/en/Products/DesignSoftwareAndIP/FPGAandLDS/LatticeDiamond.aspx2. Click the "Downloads" tab3. Click whichever OS/version you need4. Go through the account creation process, etc etc

content: But you need to click the download tab to see the download link??? In any case, Download tab >> "Diamond 3.2 64-bit for Windows" takes me to a login page.You should probably report this issue to the website feedback.

content: What I'm saying is that their website was a bit broken last time I used it. What I'm also saying is that you can request thefree licensefor free, by sending them an email at zero cost. After which you will receive a license for free. Also, it doesn't cost anything.

content: Quote from: overload on July 13, 2014, 10:57:21 pmYup, email works fine.QuoteContact form didn't work last time. And based on another thread this wasn't a one time occurence.Quote from: miguelvp on July 13, 2014, 11:04:14 pmYeah, that's the one that also didn't work last time. In several browsers.But the OP sent an email, so it'll get sorted.Update: Just checked it, and lic_admn@latticesemi.com is indeed what I used to get a license.
