Excellent video! Some suggestions: Rather than specify the exact FPGA model, package, etc., it’s easier to specify the Digilent board name, which will set the FPGA parameters automatically. Lastly, just a minor point-when calculating the current through the LED you forgot to account for the forward voltage drop of the LED, which for a green LED is ~2 volts. So the current is (3.3 - 2.0)/R.

Hi Jerry, thanks for your thoughtful comments! I originally intended to do as you suggest, but decided it would be more valuable to walk the students through the process so they could understand what those options mean. Certainly, in later classes, I have students create projects for pre-defined boards (which is much simpler!) Also, I realised shortly after uploading the video that I didn't take into account the forward voltage drop across the LEDs. Oops! Have a wonderful weekend and thanks again.

Hi Silvercat4, I'm glad you felt at ease after watching this video. FPGAs are beautiful, but they do take time to understand. After that, it's great! If you want to program a MicroBlaze core or the processing subsystem (PS / CPU) on a system-on-chip FPGA (e.g., a Zynq) then Vitis is useful. As for TeraTerm, I think any terminal/emulator will work. If all you want to do is configure the programmable logic (PL / FPGA) then you just need Vivado. There's a lot that can be learned before bringing MicroBlaze or a PS into the mix! :)

@fpgatherapy4 жыл бұрын
Hi Naveen. I had planned this out, actually, and have some code ready that may be of some help prior to me releasing a new video. Your FPGA will have positive and negative (differential) clock pins on it. In your constraints file, you need to specify the pin locations and IO standards according to your development board's datasheet. It might look something like this (for a ZCU104 Zynq UltraScale+ development board): set_property PACKAGE_PIN E23 [get_ports "CLK_125_N"]; # Bank 28 VCCO - VCC1V8 - IO_L13N_T2L_N1_GC_QBC_28 set_property IOSTANDARD LVDS [get_ports "CLK_125_N"]; # Bank 28 VCCO - VCC1V8 - IO_L13N_T2L_N1_GC_QBC_28 set_property PACKAGE_PIN F23 [get_ports "CLK_125_P"]; # Bank 28 VCCO - VCC1V8 - IO_L13P_T2L_N0_GC_QBC_28 set_property IOSTANDARD LVDS [get_ports "CLK_125_P"]; # Bank 28 VCCO - VCC1V8 - IO_L13P_T2L_N0_GC_QBC_28 You'll also want to specify that CLK_125_P is a clock (it will propagate this information for CLK_125_N). Do this with some code in the constraints file like this: create_clock -period 8.000 -name CLK_125_P [get_ports CLK_125_P] Note: '-period 8.000' specifies the clock's period in nanoseconds. The ZCU104's clocks have a frequency of 125 MHz, so the period is 8.000 ns. Place this create_clock command above the set_property commands in your constraints file. If you want to generate a single-ended clock based on your differential input clock, you should use an IBUFGDS (stands for input buffer, global differential signal) in your top-level VHDL or Verilog file. IBUFGDS #( .IOSTANDARD("LVDS") // Specify the input I/O standard ) IBUFGDS_inst ( .O(clk), // Buffer output .I(CLK_125_P), // Diff_p buffer input (connect directly to top-level port) .IB(CLK_125_N) // Diff_n buffer input (connect directly to top-level port) ); You could test this out in Verilog with the following code (in addition to the constraints file you'll need to create): module clockCreation_TOP( input CLK_125_N, input CLK_125_P ); wire clk; IBUFGDS #( .IOSTANDARD("LVDS") // Specify the input I/O standard ) IBUFGDS_inst ( .O(clk), // Buffer output .I(CLK_125_P), // Diff_p buffer input (connect directly to top-level port) .IB(CLK_125_N) // Diff_n buffer input (connect directly to top-level port) ); // Example clocked process using the newly generated clock reg [31:0] counter; always @(posedge clk) begin counter

@fpgatherapy5 жыл бұрын
@@robmartin7873 That's a very powerful development kit. There are considerable workflow differences between conventional 'software' development (e.g., C, C++) and FPGA development. I find that the more experienced you are at software, the more difficult it is to build the intuition for how your code is translated into a functioning program (or bitstream) on the FPGA. It's important to understand how the synthesis and implementation tools translate your code into basic logic elements. I've also found that a lot of students take some time to get used to the fact that everything is happening all the time on the FPGA, and not necessarily in a defined sequence. Ultimately, translating a software algorithm onto an FPGA often depends on a) the nature of the algorithm (e.g., signal processing vs. pure logic vs. a procedural, etc.); b) your specific goal (performance, functionality, parallelization, determinism), and c) how patient you are. When did you begin with the ZCU?

I think it has something to do with generating the design constraints and creating IOSTANDARD constraint ".../axis gpo 0/gpo io o[0]" not directly connected to top level port. Nevertheless a tutorial on the TLC console and output messages and solving errors we would be most appreciated. You do an excellent job explaining.

Hi AnMoMu, If you go to 2:54 on the video you'll see a close up of the FPGA chip. This close up picture shows the device family Artix-7, part number (XC7A100T) and package identifier (CSG324). The line below the package identifier is the 'Lot Code' (useful for traceability and verification of the part). Then, immediately below the Lot Code is a number (1) and letter (C). The number '1' indicates the device speed grade (in this case, the higher the number, the faster the FPGA's minimum performance in terms of clock speed... i.e., higher speed grade -> faster designs). The letter indicates the device's temperature grade (C = Commercial, I = Industrial, and E = Extended). The Nexys-4 DDR's Artix-7 has a speed grade 1 and temperature grade C. Note: it's unlikely you'll find a development board with a temperature grade other than C, but perhaps some boutique reference boards do. I hope this is helpful.
