Introduction
1.1
Prerequisites
>
Knowledges and practices of the xilinx development and design tools like Ise Design Suite version 11.1.
>
User’s knowledges and practices of Linux: the drivers and tests tools ( binaries and sources ) delivered as
examples, are available for Linux distributions and are coded in C and python language.
>
Modifying some FPGA code IP’s like I2C, SPI is highly inadvisable. All modification will be done at customer’s
own risks. I2C and SPI IPs were dedicated to Kontron boards so any changes could break some
functionalities.
1.2
Use cases
This documents meet the following cases:
>
New FPGA application development.
>
New FPGA application deployment.
>
New FPGA application test.
>
Troubleshooting. All of those cases will be developed hereafter.
