Hardware Setup
Before connecting the ADI evaluation board to the Xilinx KC705 make sure that the VADJ_FPGA voltage of the KC705 is set to 3.3V. For more details on how to change the setting for VADJ_FPGA visit the Xilinx KC705 product page.
- Use the FMC-SDP interposer to connect the ADI evaluation board to the Xilinx KC705 board on the FMC LPC connector.
- Connect the JTAG and UART cables to the KC705 and power up the FPGA board.
- Start IMPACT, and double click “Boundary Scan”. Right click and select Initialize Chain. The program should recognize the Kintex 7 device (see screenshot below).
- Program the KC705 FPGA using the “Bit/download.bit” file provided in the reference design archive.
- Power the ADI evaluation board.
At this point everything is set up and it is possible to start the evaluation of the ADI hardware through the controls in the uC-Probe application provided in the reference design.
Configure uC-Probe
Launch uC-Probe from the Start → All Programs → Micrium → uC-Probe.
Select uC-Probe options.
- Click on the uC-Probe icon on the top left portion of the screen.
- Click on the Options button to open the dialog box.
Set target board communication protocol as RS-232
- Click on the Communication tab icon on the top left portion of the dialog box
- Select the RS-232 option.
Setup RS-232 communication settings
- Select the RS-232 option from the Communication tab.
- Select the COM port to which the KC705 board is connected.
- Set the Baud Rate to 115200 bps.
- Press Apply and OK to exit the options menu.
Load and Run the Demonstration Project
- Click the Open option from the uC-Probe menu and select the .wsp file from the ucProbeInterface folder provided within the reference design files.
- Before opening the interface uC-Probe will ask for a symbols file that must be associated with the interface. Select the file ucProbeInterface/ADIEvalBoard.elf to be loaded as a symbol file.
- Run the demonstration project by pressing the Play button.
- In some cases it is possible that the uC-Probe interface will not respond to the commands the first time it is ran. In this situation just stop the interface by pressing the Stop button and run it again by pressing the Play button.
- After starting the uC-Probe interface wait until the status of the connection with the board displayed on the bottom of the screen is set to Connected. It is possible to use the interface only after the status is changed to Connected and the data transfer speed displayed next to the connection status is different than 0.
