Push-Button Switches

Locations and Labels

The MicroBlaze Development Kit board has four momentary-contact push-button
switches, shown in
board and are labeled BTN_NORTH, BTN_EAST, BTN_SOUTH, and BTN_WEST. The
FPGA pins that connect to the push buttons appear in parentheses in
associated UCF appears in

Operation

Pressing a push button connects the associated FPGA pin to 3.3V, as shown in

button is not pressed.
UCF. There is no active debouncing circuitry on the push button.

Notes:
1. All BTN_* push-button inputs require an internal pull-down resistor.
2. BTN_SOUTH is also used as a soft reset in some FPGA applications
