Suggestions for tutorials

Former Member
Former Member over 13 years ago

Few ideas

For linux
Remote debugging with gdb
c++ hello world
python and python hello world
pwm for rc servos
zedboard hexapod
using a microphone
audio output
vga output
dvi output
networking
voip / voip box
home gateway
3G dongle/connection
gps
pong
Qt program development
accelerometers
imu
onboard java compiler
seven segment/alpha numeric display
simple oscilliscope
weather station


For android
Hello world
remote debugging with eclipse
using a microphone
audio output
vga output
dvi output
touchscreen



I'd be happy to write some of these once I get a zedboard (looks like mid August) if I can get the time with work and studies.


Might be worthwhile doing a port of the arduino tools
like papillio has done with zpuino for those who don't want to use edk. Have a supplied basic set of peripherals in the bitstream that the software can use.

Could make it more attractive for some hobbiests and software people ? as less of a learning curve.First steps then if you want the full power you need to use edk.


Plus a cheap fmc to arduino wing adaptor with level shifters would be handy.

    Thanks so much AlexxG for your interest!  I will be sure to pass these along to the fella's at Avnet, and will start in on a few myself as soon as I get my own Zed board!

    Can we also please add some sections for beginners who  haven't done any FPGA development before? For example,
    1) Installing WebPack
    2) Using PlanAhead, ISE, XPS
    3) Simple example project to get started on the Zedboard

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Thadshayanan,

    For installation guidance for 14.1, I recommend installing the full version of the tools and then licensing for WebPACK usage.  Take a look at Xilinx UG798 for more comprehensive instructions:

    http://www.xilinx.com/support/documentation/sw_manuals/xilinx14_1/iil.pdf

    We will have some further tutorials posted shortly.

    Regards,

    -Kevin

    Hopefully get my board this week.
    So when I get the time I'll be happy to start on a few projects.

    Though I'd prefer to do them as a wiki ,rather than a static doc, makes it easier for others to update and extend them.

    Any update on whether zedboard.org is going to allow or have a wiki or have one else where like elinux.org or ...?

    It is a two part blog post that describes how to get a hello world c project running on bare metal - not just PlanAhead.  Thanks for the links on elinux.org as well.

    Does anyone know of good tutorials for application code development for beginners? i.e. more detailed explanation of the included libraries, functional calls that are used in the Application SW Code shown in A.3 of  ZedBoard: Zynq-7000 AP SoC Concepts, Tools and Techniques ...  Thanks.
