Embedded Design with FPGAs Workshop

|
|
| The Embedded Design Flow workshop is designed to bring Professors up to speed on the capabilities and characteristics of the Xilinx MicroBlaze™ 32-bit soft processor core, the hard embedded IBM PowerPC™ core in the Virtex-II Pro™ FPGA, and the Embedded Development Kit (EDK) design environment. Developing embedded systems using the hard or soft processor cores and a set of soft peripherals is also included in the lectures and labs. Plentiful personal experience with the development, debugging, and simulation of the embedded system is provided in the "hands on" labs. |
