ADI Kuiper Linux with support for Evaluation
This is a version of the standard ADI Kuiper Linux SD card image that has been customized to support product evaluation with the ACE software. This image is pre-configured to boot Linux on the ZedBoard and also enables the ZedBoard USB OtG port so that ACE can connect to the board for configuration and data capture using IIO over USB to simplify PC connections.
If you are looking for the normal ADI Kuiper Linux SD card image, that is available from this page: Kuiper Linux.
Requirements
- You need a Host PC (Windows or Linux).
- You need a SD card writer connected to above PC (Supported USB SD readers/writers are OK).
Download Linux Image
The BOLD is what you should type. It's not too much more than Special Agent Oso's three special steps, and it also allows you to go for that specialty coffee you have been craving.
Make sure you unzip the image using either 7-zip or on Linux it can be done via command-line unzip <image_name>.zip. The actual file that needs to be dumped to the SD card has to have the *.img extension.
Your SD-card needs to be at least 16 GB.
If your computer has security restrictions imposed by your company's IT department, which prevent you from writing data to SD-cards (or the data is encrypted when written on the SD-card), then consider using a computer that doesn't have such restrictions or communicating with your IT department to find a solution.
- 28 July 2021 ADI Kuiper Linux with support for ACE Evaluation - Release 5, 2 April 2024
- Supports the following evaluation boards:
- EVAL-AD4630-24FMCZ, EVAL-AD4030-24FMCZ, EVAL-AD4630-16FMCZ
- EVAL-ADAQ8092-FMCZ
- EVAL-AD4858FMCZ
- EVAL-AD4080FMCZ
- After writing this image to an SD card, the boot configuration needs to be set to match the evaluation board that is going to be used with ACE.
- The default boot configuration is for an EVAL-ADAQ8092-FMCZ board.
- To configure for a different evaluation board, boot the ZedBoard with the imaged SD card, and connect a USB cable to the ZedBoard USB UART or OtG port. Then using a terminal program, e.g. putty or Teraterm, open a serial port at 115200 baud to get a terminal shell.
- Then run the script that corresponds to the board you want to use with the options required.
eval-ad4630- same script for EVAL-AD4630-24FMCZ, EVAL-AD4030-24FMCZ, EVAL-AD4630-16FMCZeval-adaq8092eval-ad4858eval-ad4080
- Add
configureafter the script name to get a list of the different configuration options required by a given script. Each script has specific configure options.- For Example:
eval-ad4858 configureto get the options, and theneval-ad4858 configure cmosto do the configuration action - If an invalid set of options is selected, errors will be reported.

Now, depending on if you are using Linux or Windows, follow these instructions to write the file to your SD card.
Once the SD card image is programmed it can be inserted into the host controller SD card slot. Follow the hardware setup guide for the evaluation board you are using to complete the setup to get up and running.
