The Trenz Electronic FPGA Reference Designs are TCL-script based project. Command files for execution will be generated with "_create_win_setup.cmd" on Windows OS and "_create_linux_setup.sh" on Linux OS.
TE Scripts are only needed to generate the vivado project, all other additional steps are optional and can also executed by Xilinx Vivado/SDK GUI. For currently Scripts limitations on Win and Linux OS see: Project Delivery Currently limitations of functionality
_create_win_setup.cmd/_create_linux_setup.sh and follow instructions on shell:
Press 0 and enter for minimum setup
(optional Win OS) Generate Virtual Drive or use short directory for the reference design (for example x:\<design name>)
Create Project
Select correct device and Xilinx install path on "design_basic_settings.cmd" and create Vivado project with "vivado_create_project_guimode.cmd" Note: Select correct one, see TE Board Part Files
Create HDF and export to prebuilt folder
Run on Vivado TCL: TE::hw_build_design -export_prebuilt Note: Script generate design and export files into \prebuilt\hardware\<short dir>. Use GUI is the same, except file export to prebuilt folder
Generate Programming Files with HSI/SDK
Start with TE Scripts on Vivado TCL: TE::sw_run_hsi (optional) Start SDK with Vivado GUI or start with TE Scripts on Vivado TCL: TE::sw_run_sdk to generate files manually Note: See SDK Projects
(optional )Copy "prebuilt\software\<short dir>\srec_spi_bootloader.elf" into "\firmware\microblaze_0" (replace shipped one) and regenerate design again (HW (Step5)+SW(Step6 only a.))
