DateName
08/11/2010 Using EDK to Run Xilkernel on a MicroBlaze Processor(PDF, ver 7.0, 568 KB )

This example details a Xilinx embedded system example design that illustrates the features of the Xilkernel on the MicroBlaze soft processor, using the Embedded Development Kit. The hardware design used to illustrate the kernel consists of a MicroBlaze processor connected to two XPS timers, a UARTLITE, an XPS interrupt controller, external SRAM, GPIO modules and the XPS MDM module for debugging the processor. The software application consists of Xilkernel and a complete of application threads executing on top of the kernel, each illustrating various concepts of the kernel. For more information on this design including detailed instructions, refer to the associated Zip file.
