Configuring the FPGA
This section describes how to configure the FPGA using an SD card included with the board.
The FPGA can also be configured through Vivado Design Suite using the .bit files available
on the SC card or online (as collection rdf0294-vc7215-ibert-2015-1.zip) at the
Virtex-7 FPGA VC7215 Characterization Kit
To configure from the SD card:
1. Insert the SD card labeled IBERT #1 provided with the VC7215 board into the SD card
reader slot located on the bottom side (upper right corner) of the VC7215 board.
2. Plug the 12V output from the power adapter into connector J2 on the VC7215 board.
3. Connect the host computer to the VC7215 board using a standard-A plug to Micro-B
plug USB cable. The standard-A plug connects to a USB port on the host computer and
the Micro-B plug connects to U17, the Digilent USB JTAG configuration port on the
VC7215 board.
4. Select the GTH IBERT demonstration with the System ACE™ SD controller SYSACE-2 CFG
switch, SW28. The setting on this 4-bit DIP switch
configure the FPGA. A switch is in the ON position if set to the far right and in the OFF
position if set to the far left. For the Quad 115 GTH IBERT demonstration, set
ADR2 = ON, ADR1 = OFF, and ADR0 = ON. The MODE bit (switch position 4) is not used
and can be set either ON or OFF.
