Chapter 1: MicroBlaze Development Kit - Getting Started
HelloWorld Demo
This is the design shipped with the board. This is a simple demonstration that exercises a
few of the board features. The embedded MicroBlaze Processor prints messages on the
character LCD screen. Flashes the LEDs, reads the Switches and Buttons and sends text
data as standard out over a DTE UART with following settings, Baud rate of 115200, 1 Stop
bit, No Parity, and No Flow Control. This application is loaded into the Platform Flash
PROM.
μClinux Demo
This is a demonstration of μClinux running on the MiroBlaze soft processor. The μClinux
Reference System supports many basic linux commands. The list of commands and tools
available to run can be found in the /bin directory. The μClinux kernel supports several
network utilities when connected to a live network or to a remote computer. The μClinux
image is loaded into the Intel StrataFlash PROM.
BlueCat Linux Demo
This is a demonstration of LynuxWorks BlueCat Linux running on the MiroBlaze soft
processor. Refer to the BlueCat Linux Reference System chapter for details and instructions
on how to run the BlueCat Linux demo. The BlueCat Linux image is not loaded into the
Intel StrataFlash PROM.
Note:
configuration mode. Therefore, for booting the system using the the Lynuxworks Bluecat Linux, the
Intel Strata Flash PROM must be re-programmed with the BlueCat linux image in the BPI Up
Configuration mode.
