The ML410 series of Embedded Development Platforms offer designers a versatile
Virtex-4 FX platform for rapid prototyping and system verification. In addition to the
more than 30,000 logic cells, over 2,400 kb of block RAM, dual IBM PowerPC 405 (PPC405)
processors, and RocketIO transceivers available in the FPGA, the ML410 provides an
onboard Ethernet MAC PHY, DDR memory, multiple PCI bus slots, and standard front
panel interface ports within an ATX form factor motherboard. An integrated
System ACE™ CompactFlash (CF) controller is deployed to perform board bring-up and
to load applications from the CompactFlash card.
The ML410 website contains up-to-date documentation and files, including tutorials,
device data sheets, reference designs, and utilities. The EDK Processor IP User Guide
should be reviewed as well as the data sheets corresponding to the devices listed in
"Detailed Description."
The setup and quickstart documentation highlights the functionality of the ML410, using
the applications contained on the CompactFlash card. The reference designs were
produced using the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK), ISE, and Answer Browser
solution records. Tutorials, in coordination with Xilinx documentation for EDK, ISE, and
the Answer Browser, describe how the reference designs and applications were produced.
These tutorials can be used to re-create the provided applications and also as a basis for the
development of new designs. Xilinx EDK provides for the development of basic board-
specific systems, beginning with Base System Builder (BSB), to highly customized systems
that leverage the flexibility of Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS) and the EDK intellectual
property (IP).
The list below is a superset of features in the ML410 series.
describes the differences between the ML410-P and ML410 model boards.
