Embedded Design Flow Workshop - Xilinx



High-Level Synthesis Flow on Zynq using Vivado HLS WorkshopZYBOCOURSE DESCRIPTIONThis course provides professors with an understanding of high-level synthesis design methodologies necessary to develop digital systems using Vivado HLS. After completing this workshop, you will be able to understand high-level synthesis flow of Vivado HLS, apply appropriate directives to optimize design performance, and create a custom peripheral and add it to a processor system.Install Xilinx softwareProfessors may submit the online donation request form at to obtain the latest Xilinx software. The workshop was tested on a PC running Microsoft Windows 7 professional edition. Vivado 2017.4 System EditionSetup hardwareConnect ZYBO Set the power supply jumper to USB so the board can be powered up and laboratory assignments can be carried out using single micro-usb cableConnect micro USB cable between PROG UART port of ZYBO and PCInstall distribution Extract the labsource.zip file in the c:\xup\hls directory. This will create a labs folder. The labdocs.zip file consists of lab documents in the PDF format. Extract this zip file in c:\xup\hls directory or any other directory of your choice.Download the zybo.zip file and extract it in the <Vivado_2017_4_install_dir>\Vivado\2017.4\data\boards\board_files\zynq. This directory is the board files directory and having it in the specified directory will allow you to select Zybo board during the design creation (refer to labdoc of Lab4).For Professors onlyDownload the labsolution.zip and docs_source.zip files using your membership account. Do not distribute them to students or post them on a web site. The docs_source.zip file contains lab documents in Microsoft Word and presentations in PowerPoint format for you to use in your classroom. Note: labsolution.zip is not available due to its size.Get StartedReview the presentation slides (see course agenda) and step through the lab exercises (see lab descriptions) to complete the labs.COURSE AGENDADay 1 AgendaDay 1 MaterialsClass Intro01_class_intro.pptxIntroduction to High-Level Synthesis11_HLS_Intro.ppt xUsing Vivado HLS12_Using_VivadoHLS.pptxLab 1: Vivado HLS Design Flow 12a_lab1_intro.pptx01_Lab.docxImproving Performance13_Improving_Performance.pptxLab 2: Improving Performance13a_lab2_intro.pptx02_Lab.docxData Types14_Data_Types.pptxDay 2 AgendaDay 2 MaterialsOptimizing for Area and Resources Utilization21_Improving_Resources.pptxLab 3: Improving Area and Resources Utilization21a_lab3_intro.pptx03_Lab.docxIO Protocols22_IO_Protocols.pptxCoding Considerations23_Coding_Considerations.pptCreating a Processor System24_Creating_Processor_System.pptxLab 4: Creating a Processor System to Filter Audio Signal24a_lab4_into.pptx04_Lab.docxLAB DESCRIPTIONSLab 1 - Experience a basic design flow of Vivado HLS and review generated output. Lab 2 - Use pipelining technique to improve performance. Lab 3 - Use directives to optimize resource sharing. Lab 4 - Use IP-XACT export capability of Vivado HLS to generate an IP and integrate the generated core in an embedded system developed using IP Integrator.
