Xilinx® ATP Courses > Advanced FPGA Implementation

Advanced FPGA Implementation, FPGA4
Visit Xilinx Customer Education
This course tackles the most sophisticated aspects of the ISE11.1 tool suite and Xilinx hardware.  Seven labs provide hands-on experience in this two-day course and cover the Xilinx Synthesis Technology (XST) tools. 

This course requires the Fundamentals of FPGA Design and Designing for Performance courses as prerequisites.  An intermediate knowledge of Verilog or VHDL is strongly recommended as is at least six months' design experience with Xilinx tools and FPGAs.  The lecture material in this course covers the ISE software 11.1 tools and the Virtex®-5 and Spartan® -3EFPGAs....DOWNLOAD ADVANCED FPGA IMPLEMENTATION COURSE DETAIL

ADVANCE FPGA IMPLEMENTATION
LAB DESCRIPTIONS

> Lab 1:  Timing Closure Review -- Use the Constraints Editor to enter timing constraints.

> Lab 2: UCF Editing -- Write constraints directly into a UCF file to guide the performance results.

> Lab 3: Advanced I/OP Timing -- Compose timing constraints for an I/O interface.  Analyze the timing and determine changes to optimize the interface timing.

> Lab 4: Tcl Scripting -- Write ISE tool control commands in Tcl script files to create a project and implement the design.  Explore how the Tcl interface is integrated with the Project Navigator tool.

> Lab 5:  SmartGuide Technology -- Utilize SmartGuide technology to preserve the timing results from one iteration to the next.

> Lab 6: Floorplanning -- Implement a design by using floorplanned constraints to enhance the timing results over a design without floorplanning.

> Lab 7:  Advance FPGA Editor -- Use the FPGA to view and edit a design.  Rapidly locate and swap signals of interest for ChipScope tool cores.
