I created my first video tutorial!
I’ve had this Arty A7-35 around for a while, and recently discovered that ARM has released some Cortex-M3 core example implementations for this board.
This tutorial walks you through the basics of getting the Xilinx Vivado software running, programming the board with a default image, unpacking and setting up the ARM Cortex-M3 model, compiling the example Cortex-M3 software, and merging that into your bitstream file.
For the next installment I want to walk through how to add an AXI peripheral using the IP Integrator/Block Design tool, add some custom RTL to the peripheral, and add a few lines of software to interface with it.
I learned a lot through the process of recording and editing this video that I can use to make the next one even better!
