The top level of the hardware design is a Xilinx ISE Project Navigator Project (.XISE) for
Xilinx ISE version 14.2. The Verilog-based HDL design instantiates the MicroBlaze core,
the support hardware required to run the MicroBlaze, and the peripherals that interface
to the Pmod ports.
Software i
s supplied as a Xilinx software development kit (SDK)
project that includes a demonstration software application to evaluate the Alameda
subsystem reference design. The lower level c-code driver routines are portable to the
user’s own software project.
