In this lab we will learn how create a boot image for QSPI and boot from it with usage of FSBL. We will create boot image for test peripherals application and boot it from non-volatile memory. 1. Create the QSPI boot imageTo create a boot image ...
First Stage Boot Loader application configures the FPGA with HW bit stream and loads operating system image or standalone image or second stage boot loader image from non-volatile memory (NAND/NOR/QSPI) to RAM and starts executing it. In this lab we ...
The purpose of this lab is to upload a example application from the SDK to the hardware through a JTAG connection (This part is similar to the laboratory number two from first module). Additionally we will get familiar with software debugging. 1...
Before Starting to work on Minized with Xilinx SDK , we need to get Acquainted with at least some Hardware Aspects of Minized ,in order to prevent possible Confusion.If you guys have Already followed my Hardware Design Posts , you can skip to &...
In this lab we will learn how to add a new software application to SDK based on examples with Hello World and Memory/Peripheral tests applications. 1. Start of development based on example codePlease launch Xilinx SDK and choose: File -> New ...
Well - I finally managed to do it!I have created a basic project based on the lessons from the training. About:Through Avnet, Xilinx and Element14, a training program to learn about the Zynq 7000 platform which is System On Chip combining an FPG...
This is an update on where my project is at. My initial intent was to rebuild a line follower that I did back like 8 years ago; but using the MiniZed. The board is very well suited for this application - the PL (FPGA) can do all the grunt work o...
Hey guys,Hope this new year brings luck and fortune to everyone! ZynqHW_2017_4_lab_1_v11 : So I would just cover briefly Lab 1 :Guides to setup a new project. I didn't like the fact Avnet is forcing it's users to select target langu...
This blog will cover the final two lessons in the Speedway Series for Software on the MiniZed. We'll talk about the built-in libraries and go through using the PMOD headers. About:Through Avnet, Xilinx and Element14, a training program to le...
In this post we get through labs 8 and 9. This will teach us how to archive a project and restore from archives; then it will discuss using interrupts in our programs. About:Through Avnet, Xilinx and Element14, a training program to learn about ...
My project is to do something interesting with the PMOD TDM114 camera module.I found a demo project on the Avnet site called "MJPEG Video Streaming on Avnet MiniZed"It looks like exactly what I needed to start this project, so I downloaded ...

Hello again!In this post, we'll /finally/ upload to the physical MiniZed AND get it to boot up on its own running a program. About:Through Avnet, Xilinx and Element14, a training program to learn about the Zynq 7000 platform which is System On C...
Hello again,In lab 5 we finally connect the MiniZed and flash it with a program! Closely followed by lab 6 in which we set up the first stage bootloader - FSBL. This will allow the MiniZed to run "untethered" and not plugged in with the JTAG connecto...
Finished the second module training course today with minimal headaches.Lab 8 objectives:This lab came in handy, because I messed up something during lab 10 and I had to revert to the archived workspace from lab 8.Whatever I did, the SDK will no long...
For my Path to Programmable project, I wanted to build something that would use both the PS & PL of the Zynq-7000.
The original plan was to build a logic analyzer that used BRAM & DRAM as a sample buffer, but I realized that I might not get i...
Hello, In this lesson, we create our own application; and explore some of the available code examples for the Zynq MiniZed training board. About:Through Avnet, Xilinx and Element14, a training program to learn about the Zynq 7000 platform w...
Lab 3 - Board Support PackageWelcome back everyone - hope you all have a great new year! This lab goes into much more detail about what the Board Support Package (BSP) is and does when it comes to the software SDK. For me, this cleared up a lot of qu...
Chapter 10 Video - Xilinx Libraries This video explored the system libraries that Xilinx includes with SDK. These can be configured and initialized from the BSP settings eg- the Flash library allows users to select the manufacturer (Atmel, Micro...
The Module 2 of the MiniZed Path to Programmable is focused on software development in xilinx fpga. After viewing the training videos; this module is about Vivado SDK and SDK Application development flow. The previous minized hardware development ZYN...

Hey guys,So I received the MiniZed about four weeks back . It arrived during my final year exams which gave me no time to mess around with the board and the training material. Finally after my exams got over and a few celebrations (:P) I am ending of...
I ran into a problem right away, my Xilinx software licenses were all expired for some reason, and the SDK would not start.Because of this, I downloaded Xilinx_Vivado_SDK_Web_2018.3_1207_2324_Win64 and installed a new image.I can now run the SDK agai...
