Introduction
Vivado is the new FPGA design tool from Xilinx. It replaces ISE and XPS tools for new Xilinx's products. By default no Armadeus board has a new FPGA supported by Vivado, but, with the APF6, we can use Artix7 on a daughter board (or with Xilinx dev-kit), thanks to PCIe, and enjoy this new Xilinx tool. This page is a tutorial on how to install Vivado on Debian Linux host computer.
Note: Vivado can't be used with Spartan products, it starts with the "7" FPGA serie (artix7, virtex7, zynq, kintex7, ...) |
Installation
Requirements
- unsure that Bash is the default shell:
$ ls -al /bin/sh lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 févr. 10 14:49 /bin/sh -> bash
- otherwise:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
Download
- Download the file on xilinx website, note that you will need an account (free) to do that.
Xilinx_Vivado_SDK_2014.4_1119_1_Lin64.bin
Launch install
- To launch install simply type :
$ chmod 777 Xilinx_Vivado_SDK_2014.4_1119_1_Lin64.bin $ ./Xilinx_Vivado_SDK_2014.4_1119_1_Lin64.bin
- Fill forms then wait for about 20 minutes
Launching Vivado
- Go to the installed directory:
$ cd /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2014.4
- Source the architecture shell file:
/opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2014.4$ source settings64.sh
- Then launch it:
/opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2014.4$ ./bin/vivado
