FPGA SoC Hardware Design and Verification Flow

In this chapter, we will delve into implementing the SoC hardware of the Electronic Trading System (ETS), for which we developed the architecture in Chapter 6, What Goes Where in a High-Speed SoC Design. We will first go through the process of installing the Xilinx Vivado tools on a Linux Virtual Machine (VM). Then, we will define the SoC hardware microarchitecture to implement using the Xilinx Vivado tools. This chapter is purely hands-on, where you will build a simple but complete hardware SoC for a Xilinx FPGA. You will be guided at every step of the SoC hardware design, from the concept to the FPGA image generation. This will also cover hardware verification aspects, such as using the available RTL simulation tools to check the design and look for potential hardware issues.

In this chapter, we’re going to cover the following main topics:
