Final Project

Extensive Use of XADC module for Sensor data acquisition/Power measurement using MiniZed board

Create new project

Select the device as XC7Z007Scfg225-1 which is the SoC available on MiniZed board

Click on create block design

Type XADC and select XADC wizard

Right click on Vp_Vn pin and click Make external

Add clocking wizard block

Click on Run connection automation

Connect clk_out1 and Locked outputs of the CLK_WIZ_0 to the s_axi_aclk and s_axi_aresetn pins

Double click on XADC_WIZ_0 module and enter the different ADC parameters

Click on Create HDL Wrapper

Click on Implementation and Then Create Bitstream

Then open Hardware Manager

Double click on XADC (System Manager)

In XADC dashboard, add all XADC signals

All the ADC signals can be added and probed as shown in figure below

External analog signals can be connected to the AD0 to AD5 pins and the changes can be seen over this XADC monitor
