Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+MPSoC series development board AXU2CG-E, AXU3EG, AXU4EV-E, AXU5EV-E

Introduction to development board

Introduction to development board

The whole structure of the development board is designed by inheriting our consistent pattern of core board+expansion board. The core board and expansion board are connected by high-speed inter-board connectors. The backplane includes 1 channel M.2 interface, 1 channel DP interface, 4 channels USB3.0 interface, 2 channels Gigabit Ethernet interface, 2 channels UART serial interface, 1 channel SD card interface, 2 40-pin expansion interfaces, 2 channels CAN bus interface, 2 channels RS485 interface, 1 channel MIPI interface and some key LEDs.

Key characteristics

1. 1-way M.2 interface, PCIEx1 (ps), speed 6Gbps
2. 1-channel DP output interface, mini DP (ps), maximum support 4kx2k@30fps Output
3. 4-way USB3.0 interface, usb (ps), speed 5.0Gbps, flat USB interface (USB Type A)
4. 2-way Gigabit Ethernet interface, jl2121, 1-way ps, 1-way pl, rgmii interface
5. Two uart to usb, one ps and one pl
6. 1 Micro SD card holder (ps)
7. Two 40-pin expansion ports, 2.54mm spacing, one 5v, two 3.3v, three gnd, and 34 IO ports. The IO level standard of the expansion port is 3.3V
8. 2-way CAN communication interface (ps)
9. 2-way 485 communication interface (pl)
10. 1 channel mipi interface (pl), 15PIN FPC connector, 2 lane data, 1 pair of clock
11. 1 RTC real-time clock, 32.768KHz passive clock (ps)
12. EEPROM and temperature sensor, one EEPROM 4Kbit (2x256x8bit) (ps), one LM75 temperature chip (ps), with an accuracy of 0.5 degrees
13. 3 led lights, 1 power supply, 1 pl control, 1 ps control
14. 3 keys, 1 reset key RESET and 2 user keys
15. Size 200mm x 111mm
16. Power supply 12v/3A

AXU2CG-E/AXU3EG/AXU4EV-E/AXU5EV-E Demo Project

Description

This is vivado factory demo project for ALINX board.

Requirement

• Vivado 2020.1
• AXU2CG-E/AXU3EG/AXU4EV-E/AXU5EV-E Development Board

Create Vivado Project

• Download recent release ZIP archive.
• Create new project folder.
• Extract the download ZIP to the new project folder.
• For different development board, please open <archive extracted location>/vivado/auto_create_project/project_info.tcl Choose one devicePart and save.

xczu2cg-sfvc784-1-e is for AXU2CG-E
xczu3eg-sfvc784-1-e is for AXU3EG
xczu4ev-sfvc784-1-i is for AXU4EV-E
xczu5ev-sfvc784-2-i is for AXU5EV-E

set devicePart "xczu2cg-sfvc784-1-e" 
#set devicePart "xczu3eg-sfvc784-1-e"
#set devicePart "xczu4ev-sfvc784-1-i"
#set devicePart "xczu5ev-sfvc784-2-i"
set runs_jobs 5

There are two methods to create vivado project as below:

Create Vivado Project in Vivado tcl console

1. Open Vivado software and switch to "auto_create_project" path with cd command and Enter

cd \<archive extracted location\>/vivado/auto_create_project

2. Type source ./create_project.tcl and Enter

source ./create_project.tcl

Create Vivado Project using bat

1. In "auto_create_project" folder, there is "create_project.bat", open it in edit mode, and change to your own vivado software installation path. Save and close.

CALL E:\XilinxVitis\Vivado\2020.1\bin\vivado.bat -mode batch -source create_project.tcl
PAUSE

2. Double click bat file in Windows environment
