The use of Xilinx legacy development tools (ISE, Impact) is not recommended. Impact does recognize only A100T, any smaller Artix is not even recognized as Xilinx FPGA by Impact.

 

DDR3 Memory

The TE0710 board contains one DDR3 component with a capacity of 4Gb.

Configuration of the DDR3 memory controller in the FPGA should be done using the Xilinx MIG tool in the Vivado IP catalog. Refer to the reference design section (DDR3 Reference Design) for information on how to do this.

MAC Address EEPROM

The TE0710 board has a UNI/O serial EEPROM with EUI-48™ Node Identity. This device is a 2 Kbit Serial Electrically Erasable PROM. It is organized in blocks of x8-bit memory and supports single I/O UNI/O® serial bus. It has a built-in 48-bit Extended Unique Identifier (EUI) that is needed to identify the network hardware’s physical address. These built-in MAC addresses enable designer to buy addresses only when needed, and also eliminate the need for serialization and programming. The address is also EUI-64 compatible, and it is write-protected to ensure tamper-proof designs. It contains an 8-bit instruction register and is accessed via the SCIO pin. The Address Data is embedded into the I/O stream through Manchester encoding. The bus is controlled by a master device which determines the clock period, controls the bus access and initiates all operations, while the serial EEPROM works as slave.
