QSPI Flash Simulation

QSPI Flash Simulation

QSPI Flash Simulation As the title of the post suggests, my intention was to originally write about QSPI (Quad SPI) only, but I would not have likely written about it when everything worked as intended, but as we already know, things are never that simple and the...
Simulating PCIe Hard IP for Ultrascale + Architecture

Simulating PCIe Hard IP for Ultrascale + Architecture

This time, I have decided to create a small and simple demo in order to show how to simulate PCIe interface (Without any DMA or PCIe bridge) for Xilinx devices as the PCIe is slowly becoming a standardized interface for FPGA in most applications from consumer...

Aurora 8/10B Transceiver GTY Serdes

The times when designers used to calculate and adjust manually delays across PCBs to match a device’s requirements (Such as a memory or ADC/DAC interface) for a few megatransfers / second are definitely over nowadays. Even though they are still used on some...
Petalinux

Petalinux

Petalinux is the Xilinx’s toolchain used for creating whole embedded Linux system for Xilinx devices. It is a convenient way of building all blocks necessary to create the bootable image for the targeted platform. But lets go to the very beginning. What you need for...
