Slide Switches
Locations and Labels
The Spartan-3E Starter Kit board has four slide switches, as shown in
switches are located in the lower right corner of the board and are labeled SW3 through
SW0. Switch SW3 is the left-most switch, and SW0 is the right-most switch.
Operation
When in the UP or ON position, a switch connects the FPGA pin to 3.3V, a logic High.
When DOWN or in the OFF position, the switch connects the FPGA pin to ground, a logic
Low. The switches typically exhibit about 2 ms of mechanical bounce and there is no active
debouncing circuitry, although such circuitry could easily be added to the FPGA design
programmed on the board.

the input value when the switch is in the middle of a transition.
