Inside Mini Zed
The MiniZed is an FPGA development board that is quite appealing for its compact form factor, wireless capabilities,
PMOD I/O, Arduino compatible connectors, and it's under $100. This project serves as the starting point for a series on
this board demonstrating how to take full advantage of this mighty little dev board. There are two parts to a design using
any Xilinx development FPGA board: the base hardware design in Vivado and the software project in either Vitis or PetaLinux.
This project will simply be a hello world baremetal application for the software part of the design.
