Procedure SDK: opening and update SDK project only
('updated' SW on 'NOT updated' HW)

Compile and link time less than 1 minute.

Procedure XPS+SDK: opening and update both XPS and SDK projects
('updated' SW on 'not updated' HW')

Resynthesis of reference project (HW component updates) could take from 10 minutes to 1 hour; it depends on which computer is used (workstation, regular PC or low-end PC)

Copy IP Cores and drivers used in TE reference projects

 Update XPS project from an old version to a new one
 

Export the HW design to SDK

Open SDK project and (if needed) update the SDK project from an old version to a new oneRecreate SDK project using the new exported HW project
Download the bitstream to the FPGA
Check the fiirmware of FX2 microcontroler
Run the demo project

Tip

For old version of Xilinx EDK with older veresion version of Project Reference (they do no longer exist on GitHub) the procedure is the folowing

  • Open the project by double-clicking on the system.xmp file. The Xilinx Platform Studio is opened.
  • If you open the project with a new version of Xilinx XPS, the tool will try to update all the components of MicroBlaze system. In some case it is not possible to refuse the update.
  • To compile the project press the "Download Bitstream to the FPGA" button.
  • If the HDL design was successfully implemented and downloaded to the TE USB FX2 module, you can proceed to compile the MB software. Press the "build all user applications" button.
