Designing Embedded Systems with FPGA-2
Turning an FPGA hardware design into a running embedded system is mostly tool work. This post walks through using Xilinx EDK to compile a base design into a .bit bitstream, generate libraries and board support packages from .mhs and .mss files, and build MicroBlaze applications with GCC. It highlights the default boot placement at 0x0 and why some apps need an explicit execution transfer.
Designing Embedded System with FPGA - 1
Getting an embedded system running on an FPGA is much simpler than it sounds when you use Xilinx EDK and a soft processor. Pragnesh Patel walks through a beginner-friendly approach using the MicroBlaze CPU, drag-and-drop IP cores, and a Spartan-3E starter kit so you can assemble peripherals without deep VHDL knowledge. The post focuses on the EDK base system builder and first setup steps to generate a working design.
