Summary

In this chapter, we introduced the FPGA and SoC hardware design flow, from defining the architecture and capturing it to generating the FPGA device configuration file. We also looked at the hardware design verification that’s involved at every step of the design flow and explained its purpose and how it can be performed. Then, we looked at the SoC design capture in the Vivado IDE and how easily a PS SoC can be created, and how it can be extended using off-the-shelf IPs from the Xilinx IP catalog. We also looked at how hardware and software co-debugging capabilities can be added to the design using the ARM CTI and Xilinx ILA features. We also introduced the SoC software design framework and the Vitis IDE and how a software project can be created using the XSA archive file. Finally, we explored the software design steps and the Xilinx terminology that’s used for the FPGA SoC-embedded software development.

The next chapter will address more of the SoC design and...
