Follow the instructions below for
loading the DLPC964 Apps binary onto the flash via a bitstream using Vivado Lab Solutions 2018.2:
Note: Click the link above to download Vivado Lab Solutions
2018.2. Once the web page is loaded, find the archived 2018.2 folder and then
navigate to the Vivado Lab Solutions 2018.2 downloadable link and download the
installation.
Note: The bitstream is always loaded onto the FPGA upon power-up
of the AMD EVM.
- Plug in the micro USB into the
side of the AMD EVM and the other end into the computer running Vivado.
- Make sure to set SW11 to 00010 (1
= on, Position 1 → Position 5, left to right).
- Set SW2
to 00000000 (1 = on, Position 1 → Position 8, left to right).
- Start Vivado Lab Studios 2018.2
on the computer.
- Select Open Hardware
Manager from the main window.
- Click open target located
in the top left of the hardware manager then Auto Connect.
- If the AMD EVM is the
only FPGA plugged into the computer, then Vivado automatically connects
to the AMD EVM. Otherwise, the process is slightly more involved.
- Right-click on the FPGA and
select Add Configuration Memory Device.
- Find the Flash name
mt28gu01gaax1e-bpi-x16 and click OK.
- Select OK again and select the
configuration file (appstop.mcs).
- Make sure all other
settings match.
- Once setup, click OK. The
programming can take a few minutes.
- Once completed, power cycle the
AMD EVM, and the DLPC964 Apps Bitstream automatically loads onto the AMD
EVM.
