Coarse Goals
●
You should know:
– What is the Zynq platform
– How to create a Petalinux system for it
– How to communicate with custom IP cores
– How to make DMA data transfers
●
We will not focus on:
– How to create custom IP cores (please take PA221)
– SystemVerilog or Verilog or VHDL
– Timing and other critical functions of FPGAs (covered by
PV200 and PA221)
– Signal processing

Petalinux Environment
●
Petalinux VM on Melampus
– ssh user@192.168.51.110
– Contact Ondrej Bleha (493178@mail.muni.cz) if you need
access from your home
●
Petalinux installation on your machine
– https://docs.amd.com/r/en-US/ug1144-petalinux-tools-refer
ence-guide
– Change default /bin/sh to /bin/bash
– Required packages (see .xlsx below the article)

Petalinux Environment
●
For Ubuntu 24.04
# make /bin/sh to point to bash
sudo ln -s bash /bin/sh.bash
sudo mv /bin/sh.bash /bin/sh
# install prerequisities
# see https://adaptivesupport.amd.com/s/article/000037095?language=en_US
# below the article there is an xlsx file which contains required packages
# after some tweaking this command worked on Ubuntu 24.04.1

First steps in Vivado
●
On Zedboard
●
Create a basic system with PS7
Notes:
●
PS (Processing System – CPU and its peripherals)
●
PL (Programmable Logic = FPGA area)
