BSP and Xilinx SDK

ist_ali

Hello:

Just bought MicroZed Industry4.0 Ethernet kit and tried to use Xilinx SDK to create hello world project. Which BSP should I use? Also tried to run memory test but it failed. Any idea about this?

Thanks,

Andrew

    Hello Andrew,

    You will want to use one of the MicroZed 7020 BSPs located at :

    http://zedboard.org/support/design/1519/10

    I would personally suggest the newest BSP "PetaLinux 2016.2 Compressed BSP, z7020"

    As for your board not passing the run memory test. I am under the impression that somthing in your hardware design is setup incorrectly. I am going to suggest you run through labs 01-03 to make sure everything works correctly. You can find them at:

    http://zedboard.org/support/design/1519/10

    In these labs you will only use your MicroZed SOM (No carrier card)

    Here is what you will do in these labs

     

    Tutorial 01 Build the Zynq Hardware Platform - Here you will construct your hardware design

    Tutorial 02 First Application Hello World - Here you will import the hardware design to SDK and then create and run the Hello World application

    Tutorial 03 Test Applications - Here you will create the Test Peripheral and Test Memory applications and run them

    *** One thing of note is to make sure you download the lab material that corresponds to your currently installed Vivado Version. 

    Plese report back if Tutorial 03 is a success or failure

    Thanks,

    Josh

    Hi Josh:

    Thanks for the info. 

    When I followed the steps to create Zynq hardware platform in Vivado, there's only one board, Zedboard Zynq evaluation..., shown in the panel. There's no MicroZed or PicoZed boards listed. 

    Thanks,

    Andrew

    Hello Andrew,

    In lab 01 experiment 1 step 1, it states you need to install the board definition files into your Vivado if you have not done so already. To do this go to this link : http://zedboard.org/support/documentation/1519 and find the board definition file located on that webpage that corresponds to your Vivado version. When downloaded there will be an installation instruction document downloaded along with the definition files.
