Display Panel Ubuntu Tutorial for ZedBoard

This tutorial builds upon the Display Panel Controller Standalone Tutorial by implementing a fully featured Ubuntu Desktop distribution, contained within the root file system. The desktop environment allows the ZedBoard to function as an embedded computer using touch input along with an LCD display panel to allow user interaction.  Required hardware includes ZedBoard and the 7-inch Zed Touch Display Kit.

This Reference Design/Tutorial supports the older ALI2 display kit hardware only.

Basic Vivado IPI Design

The design consists of a Zynq subsystem and I added (3) single channel soft GPIO peripherals to interface to the:
 - 5 buttons
 - 8 switches
 - 8 LEDs

There is an SDK peripherals_test application that reads back the buttons and switches and reports the button and switch values in the terminal (115,200 baud).  It also cycles the 8 LEDs long enough to see them (~20 iterations).

ZedBoard Configuration and Booting Guide

An introduction to the Zynq boot and configuration methods using the ISE 14.1 Design Suite

Building a Zynq Video Design from Scratch

The tutorial instructs the user how to build a HDMI pass-through design from scratch with Xilinx PlanAhead and embedded tools (XPS and SDK). Required hardware includes: ZedBoard (www.zedboard.org), FMC-IMAGEON module (www.em.avnet.com/fmc-imageon)

Zedboard HDMI Display Controller Tutorial for Vivado using Xilinx VIPP

This tutorial describes how to create a HDMI display controller for ZedBoard using the Xilinx Video Image Processing Pack (VIPP).  The example software provided with the tutorial is a simple bare metal application that generates color bars.

FMC-IMAGEON IP Cores and Tutorials for Vivado

Three IP Cores are provided for the FMC-IMAGEON module’s video interfaces (VITA receiver, HDMI input, HDMI output).  The tutorials instruct the user how to build a design with Vivado Design Suite (IP Integrator and SDK). Required hardware includes: ZedBoard or MicroZed 7020 SOM + FMC Carrier Card, FMC-IMAGEON module, or FMC-IMAGEON with VITA camera

 

Development Using Ubuntu Desktop Linux

These tutorials provide a means to integrate several different technologies on a single platform.  Using the Avnet target boards, we have the power of ARM processors, combined with the unrivaled flexibility of Xilinx programmable logic to implement custom hardware systems.    We use a Linux kernel as the foundation operating system running on the processor cores which enables a very large ecosystem of software to be run on our development kits. Virtual machines can provide a very convenient Ubuntu development environment for building the hardware platform and cross-compiling software to target the Processing System.

Open Source Linux Ethernet Performance Test Tutorial

Iperf is most commonly used for measuring maximum TCP and UDP bandwidth performance. Iperf allows the tuning of various parameters and UDP characteristics. Iperf also has capability to report bandwidth, delay jitter, and datagram loss.  This tutorial builds upon the Zynq Linux SpeedWay and PetaLinux SpeedWay training material and describes how to build Iperf from source code and use this application for network performance testing on ZedBoard, MicroZed, PicoZed, or UltraZed platforms.

Open Source Linux USB Host Tutorial

This tutorial builds upon the Zynq Linux SpeedWay training material and describes how to implement USB host functionality for ZedBoard.  The 14.4 and 14.5 versions of the tutorial also include instructions for updating to later releases of the Zynq Linux kernel.

ZedBoard version of XAPP1026: LightWeight IP (lwIP) Application Examples

This ZedBoard adaptation of Xilinx application note XAPP1026 describes how to utilize the lwIP library to add networking capability to an embedded system. In particular, lwIP is utilized to develop these applications: echo server, Web server, TFTP server, as well as receive and transmit throughput tests.

ZedBoard version of XAPP1078: Simple AMP Running Linux and Bare-Metal System on Both Zynq SoC Processors

The Zynq™-7000 All Programmable SoC contains two ARM® Cortex™-A9 processors that

can be configured to concurrently run independent software stacks or executables. This

application note describes a method of starting up both processors, each running its own

operating system and application, and allowing each processor to communicate with the other

through shared memory.

Debugging ARM Processor Systems using ARM DS-5

Note: Requires Development Studio 5 (DS‐5) Software Suite and DSTREAM Debugging tools plus the ZedBoard Processor Debug Adapter accessory

These lab-based tutorials explore various ARM® processor application debug techniques on the Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoC based MicroZed and ZedBoard development platforms using ARM DS-5. The series begins with the most basic tool configuration and board connection. It takes you all the way through dual core asynchronous debugging, Linux application and kernel debugging, profiling and application trace to root out design errors that are otherwise apparent only in very complex use cases, or worse, after a product is released.
