The Zedboard seems very interesting, it has an ARM processor on which a user can run a linux system, it is tightly coupled to an FPGA, and it includes several peripherals and an FMC connector.
I plan to run linux on the zedboard, and I want to stick the zedboard on a network and access the zedboard remotely using an ethernet connection, will that just work?
OK next, I want to create an FPGA application, I will want to use an external clock, is there an input for that? I also want to use an external trigger input, do I use the XADC for that? What is the XADC?
How about moving data back and forth between linux and the FPGA, what will be involved to make that work?
Thanks.
