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.

...

1. Plug the TE0835 module on the TEB0835 carrier board
2. Install the cooler on the RFSoC chip
   1. Attention: It is strongly recommended that the RFSoC should not be used without heat sink.
3. Connect the micro USB cable to the J29 connector
4. Plug the board on the PCIe port of the PC
5. Plug the prepared SD card on the SD card socket (J28)
6. Connect a cable with SMA or UFL connector to one of the DAC connector( for example DAC0 J9) and feed it back to the related ADC input (for example ADC0 J1)
7. (optional) A signal generator can be used to feed desired sinal to ADC input.
8. (optional) An oscilloscope can be used to monitor the output signal of DAC.

Usage

1. Prepare HW like described on section TE0835 Test Board#Hardware Setup
2. Connect UART USB (most cases same as JTAG)
3. Select SD Card as Boot Mode (or QSPI - depending on step 1)
   Note: See TRM of the Carrier, which is used.
4. Power On PCB
   Note: 1. Zynqmp RFSoC Boot ROM loads FSBL from SD into OCM, 2. FSBL loads U-boot from SD into DDR, 3. U-boot load Linux from SD into DDR
