PMOD GYRO

My dear friends
HELP!!!!!!
I will cry
Could you teach me how to connect and receive data from pmod between UART, designing with vivado. The explanation must be dummy level :) THAAAAAAAANKS

You are going to have to be more specific in what you are trying to accomplish. You mention PMOD and UART and have GYRO in your title but you don't explain what data you want to receive, from where, or where you want to send it.

You may want to start with a tutorial. The Avnet Zynq Speedways have labs targeted to the ZedBoard and MicroZed:
Developing Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC Software (Vivado 2013.3 and 2014.4.1)
Developing Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC Hardware (Vivado 2013.3 and 2014.4.1)

There is also the Zynq Concepts, Tools and Techniques for ZedBoard tutorial found here: http://zedboard.org/support/design/1521/11

Hi,

I have been trying to figure this out for several months with no success:

I have created a circuit to do some math and store the results in a FIFO RAM. I can then read them from the FIFO and display them on my terminal. This is a very slow process, and rather involved to then get that data saved onto the HDD.

Instead, I would like to read the data from the FIFO and transmit it through MAXIM technologies PMOD MAX3232, which utilizes the UART interface, to a serial port on my computer. Unfortunately I can't make the mental leap to get this done. I have followed the Zynq Workshop for Beginners tutorial http://www.silica.com/fileadmin/02_Products/Productdetails/Xilinx/Zynq_ZedBoard_Vivado_Workshop_ver1.0.pdf and can use the MAXIM temperature sensor with the SPI interface; but, the leap to the UART interface, and then tying the constraints to a specific PMOD port on a Zedboard is eluding me.

(I also have an Ethernet PMOD and a SD card PMOD that I would consider utilizing to store my data, but wanted to start with serial/RS232 since I thought it would be easier.)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
