Tutorials

This tutorial provides step-by-step instructions on how to use Spec-TRACER to meet the DO-254 objectives for requirements traceability.

An interrupt is a signal that temporarily halts the processor’s current activities and demands immediate attention. The processor saves its current state and executes an interrupt service routine to address the reason for the interrupt. Real-time designs require interrupts because many systems will have a number of inputs (e.g. keyboards, mouse, pushbuttons etc.) that will require processing. Inputs from these devices are generally asynchronous to the execution of running processes or tasks, so you cannot always predict when the event will occur. Using interrupts enables the processor to continue processing until an event occurs, at which time the processor can address the event. This interrupt-driven approach also speeds up the response time. This basic GPIO interrupt design is intended to enable GPIO interrupts to users on the TySOM-1-7Z030 board. The standard flow includes several stages to create a hardware platform for the Zynq-7000 based board.

One way of using TySOM board is using it in Xilinx SDx tool which provides mechanism to convert C/C++ functions to HDL and accelerate them in the FPGA part. This possibility demonstrates the power of Zynq chips and Aldec boards what is out of reach for standard processors. Additionally FPGA chips consume less energy than processors, so the boards can be used in embedded application with battery power supply. Some projects may require using a custom hardware IP cores. These IP cores should be added into the hardware platform and be available in SDx tool. Therefor it is necessary to update Aldec TySOM boards SDx platforms with the custom IP cores. This document provides a comprehensive instruction of adding the custom IP cores into hardware platform and updating SDx platform.

Aldec has prepared ready-to-use SDx platforms for its TySOM users to make it easy for them to develop their design. These platforms include all HW and SW the user needs to run the peripherals on the board. However, you might need to add your own custom IP to these platforms. So, in this tutorial, you will learn how to add a custom IP into TySOM SDx platform.

One way of preparing projects for the TySOM board is using the Xilinx Vivado tool which enables to create, synthesize, perform timing analysis and implement systems for FPGA platforms. Using Vivado board definitions that have been added to a board repository allows to faster-creating systems. After selecting a specific board, the project is configured with the predefined interface for that board and the Vivado design tools provide designer assistance to IP customization and creating IP integrator designs. In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a design for TySOM board using Vivado board files.

There are WiFi/Bluetooth devices on TySOM boards to be used for networking purposes. TySOM board needs to be configured for such applications. In this tutorial, you will learn how to configure Wi-Fi direct on TySOM board and use it for a networking project.

This document contains a comprehensive instruction about creating Wi-Fi access point and configuring it in different wireless communication standards. All steps were checked with TySOM-2A-7Z030 boards. Other boards may require some modification in provided instruction.

Every TySOM board is different, contains different interfaces and connectors and requires a unique Hardware platform. Aldec prepared special SDx platforms to simplify using the TySOM boards. Every SDx platform contains also a set of simple examples provided by Xilinx in xfopencv library which can be used onboard. All projects contains a C++ function which is converted to the FPGA. Aldec customers are also provided with a set of our demo project which they can use as a starting point in developing their applications. This document will demonstrate how to build examples from SDx platforms and how to build Aldec demo project in Xilinx SDx.

Internet usage has expanded to a new mode: device to device. This new mode is used in Internet of Things (IoT) applications and devices are called IoT gateways. The Aldec TySOM contains a Zynq-7000 SoC with ARM processor and a variety of interfaces to be utilized as an IoT gateway device. This document provides all necessary information about the Aldec IoT demo project with the TySOM-1-7Z030 board.

The Petalinux provides all necessary tools to build a custom operating system for Embedded solutions for the board with Xilinx Zynq chips.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to run your hardware and software application on the TySOM-1-7Z030 board using a microSD card as the boot method. The microSD card is used when you want your application to be persistent despite any power cycling. In this situation, the board will boot from the microSD card.
