Installing Open Source FPGA Toolchain on Ubuntu
The story goes like this: about a year and a half ago, I spent a few months playing around with the FPGA I got from COSCUP. At that time, I was developing on my desktop, which runs Archlinux. Recently, for some reasons, I took out this board again, but this time, I switched to my new laptop, which is installed with Windows WSL and Ubuntu 22.04, and discovered that among the tools I listed in the article , including yosys, nextpnr, prjtrellis, only yosys could be installed using apt on Ubuntu, while the others had to be compiled manually, unlike on Archlinux where someone has already set up AUR for you.
This article is a note on installing tools, hoping to help others who want to play with Lattice FPGA on Ubuntu. It primarily references this article , as well as some issues from the tools’ Github.
