The M5200x software supports the KF9000B PathWave FPGA 2022
Programming Environment (commonly known as PathWave FPGA) to
program custom logic into the instrument FPGA.
PathWave FPGA provides a complete FPGA design flow from design
creation to simulation to GateWare deployment to Hardware/Gateware
verification. This environment provides an easy-to-use GUI, where you
may create bitstream images targeted to a sandbox in the Keysight FPGA.
Refer to
Keysight's landing page for PathWave FPGA software installer. For more
information regarding the PathWave FPGA software, refer to the
embedded help file or the documentation available in the
PathWave FPGA Technical Support
The KF9000B PathWave FPGA 2022 is a licensed software. Contact
NOTE
Keysight Support for more information on procuring the respective
licenses.
PathWave FPGA, by itself, does not provide access to any of the controls,
which are associated with the Keysight M5200A PXIe modules. You must
install the Board Support Package (BSP), which is installed along with the
M5200x SW drivers, to leverage the features within the PathWave FPGA
software for your design.
The Board Support Package (BSP) comprises of two parts—an FPGA
Support Package (FSP) and a Runtime Support Package (RSP). These are
installed separately from PathWave FPGA.
The FSP is that portion of the BSP that allows you to build a bit file for the
target FPGA. It is consumed by PathWave FPGA to support design
creation and sandbox compilation; everything that is performed without
the physical hardware.
