PL LED not glowing when running from Vitis
My PL LED glows when I program the bitstream directly through Vivado Hardware Manager. But when I run an application from Vitis, the PS programs fine but the PL seems to get cleared and the LED no longer glows, even though the hardware platform was generated with the bitstream (XSA). Any idea why PL isn’t staying programmed when running from Vitis?

This is a great job and explanation. Can I use a DHT11 sensor instead?

Outstanding! This is an awesome project, congrats! I've bookmarked this and will be coming back to learn how you've created this.

RE: Blog 1 # path to programmable III (Introduction of Ultra 96 v2 kit)

FPGARenegade — Fri, 07 Jun 2024 05:31:16 GMT

I was able to purchase an active mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter a number of years ago from Amazon for less than $25 that worked fine with the Ultra96-V2. I was also able to use a mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable and plug directly into a monitor. Then hook up a USB keyboard and mouse. Depending on what you use this board for, you may almost never be plugging a monitor directly into it. The real power to be unlocked in this platform is in the Programmable Logic once you get comfortable with Vivado. For those who will never need the PL there are certainly better options.

Can we program the PS in Python instead of C?

Who is going to receive the finisher prize? Many days have passed but it has not been announced yet. I may expect to get a finisher prize. Isn't it? [mention:55e535b498a841ed8f2949266bc56dc3:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

Congratulations to all the winners, and in fact to everyone who participated in the program and learnt something in the process. Personally my goal for participation was to learn more about using the Zynq Ultrascale FPGAs. Doing this in the normal days is harder as life gets in the way of our wishes and plans, but a structured program such as the PTP3 pushes one to take out the needed time and actually learn something rather than procrastinate about it :).

I am humbled and grateful to be selected among the winners. Everyone came up with very different and unique projects and demonstrated doing so many different things that I could not have thought of by myself. I especially want to mention [mention:89905ffecc134446a07e462576154a4a:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] 's project, which was absolutely amazing. I am always amazed by how fast he can learn and implement things, and also how well he documents the whole build..!

Thank you Element14 and AMD for an amazing learning opportunity! Looking forward to more challenges/learning opportunities in future!

Congratulation to all the participants, judges, eletment14 and everyone who have contributed and pulled together this wonderful design challenge. Its been challenging, but I have really enjoyed (and also learnt a lot from the e14 community) participating in the challenge. It nice to be in the company of motivated and helpful individuals, I hope to contribute more in the coming days.
