    3 WARPLab can be downloaded and used in two different ways. First, pre-built bitstreams are provided that implement the most recent version of the WARPLab Reference Design and can be used immediately with custom user M-code PHY implementations. Second, the WARPLab Reference Design is provided as an archive of an Xilinx EDK project. This project can be  [wiki:WARPLab/ExtendingWARPLab Extending extended] any number of ways. For example, a user's custom M-code PHY can be hardened to the FPGA logic piece by piece.

    55== Bitstreams ==
    66Bitstreams are pre-built files that can be downloaded directly to WARP boards for immediate execution without the need for running the ISE design tools to generate the design. There are three types of bitstream files:
    7 * '''.bit:'''
    8 
    9 
    10 == Reference Design==
     7* '''.bit:''' The .bit files can be downloaded to a board over JTAG using the Xilinx iMPACT software.
     8* '''.bin:''' The .bin files are bitstreams that can be loaded onto an SD card and plugged into a WARP v3 board. Whenever the card is plugged in (or the board is powered on with the card plugged in), the FPGA will be programmed from the SD card. Instructions on how to write an SD are are available [wiki:howto/SD_Config here]. Note: these instructions include the process for converting a .bit file into a .bin file. These instructions can be skipped if downloading the WARPLab .bin file directly.
     9* '''.ace:''' The .ace files are bitstreams that can be written to a CompactFlash card for programming WARP v1 or WARP v2 hardware.
