+Ettus Research USRP FPGA HDL Source
+===================================
+
+Welcome to the USRP FPGA HDL source code tree! This repository contains
+free & open-source FPGA HDL for the Universal Software Radio Peripheral
+(USRP™) SDR platform, created and sold by Ettus Research. A large
+percentage of the source code is written in Verilog.
+
+## Product Generations
+
+This repository contains the FPGA source for the following generations of
+USRP devices.

+- Devices: USRP Classic Only
+- Tools: Quartus from Altera
+- [Build Instructions](http://files.ettus.com/manual/md_usrp1_build_instructions.html)
+
+### Generation 2
+
+- Directory: __usrp2__
+- Devices: USRP N2X0, USRP B100, USRP E1X0, USRP2
+- Tools: ISE from Xilinx, GNU make
+- [Build Instructions](http://files.ettus.com/manual/md_usrp2_build_instructions.html)

+## Pre-built FPGA Images
+
+Pre-built FPGA and Firmware images are not hosted here. Please visit the
+[FPGA and Firmware manual page](http://files.ettus.com/manual/page_images.html)
+for instructions on downloading and using pre-built images. In most cases, running the following
+command will do the right thing.
+
+ $ uhd_images_downloader
+
+## Building This Manual
+
+This FPGA manual is available on the web at http://files.ettus.com/manual/md_fpga.html for the most
+recent stable version of UHD. If you wish to read documentation for a custom/unstable branch you will
+need to build it and open it locally using a web browser. To do so please install
+[Doxygen](http://www.stack.nl/~dimitri/doxygen/download.html#srcbin) on your system and run the following commands:
+
+ $ cd docs
+ $ make
+ $ sensible-browser html/index.html
