Generate programming file - muneeb-mbytes/FPGABoard_edgeSpartan6 GitHub Wiki

Generating a programming file involves creating a file that contains the binary data necessary to configure the FPGA with your design. The programming file can then be used to program the FPGA device and implement your design on the hardware. Here the type of file generated is bit file (.bit). The bit file contains the configuration data for the FPGA in binary format, which is used to program the device with your design. The contents of a bit file are specific to the design and implementation of the FPGA. The bit file typically includes the bitstream data that defines the functionality of the FPGA. This bitstream data is generated from the design source files and is specific to the FPGA device and implementation settings.
