EEE 201 - Xilinx - Vivado Adopter Class (4 Days)
Please contact us for fees
Course Description
This training provides an introduction to the Vivado Design Suite. Learn about the Vivado Design Suite projects, design flow, Xilinx design constraints and basic timing reports.
Participants will also learn about the underlying database and Static Timing Analysis (STA) mechanisms. Utilize Tcl for navigating the design, creating Xilinx Design Constraints (XDC) and creating timing reports. Learn to make appropriate timing constraints for SDR, DDR, source-synchronous and system-synchronous interfaces for your FPGA design.
The minumum number of participants for this course is 5.
Course Objectives
- Introduces the Vivado design flows: the project flow and non-project batch flow
- Use the various design analysis features in the Vivado Design Suite
- Introduces Tcl (tool command language).
- Create a design in the Vivado Design Suite non-project mode
- Apply I/O constraints and perform timing analysis
- Introduces timing exception constraints and applying them to fine tune design timing
- Use Xilinx-recommended baselining procedures to progressively meet timing closure
- Introduces the methodology guidelines for advanced techniques
Who Should Attend?
FPGA designers looking to utilize Vivado who:
- currently use the Xilinx ISE® Design Suite
- already have some familiarity with Xilinx 7-Series devices
