The top level of the hardware design is a Xilinx ISE Project Navigator Project (.XISE) for
Xilinx ISE version 14.2. The Verilog-based top.v module provides FPGA/board net
connectivity, allows HDL interaction with peripherals, and instantiates the wrapper that
carries both the Zynq® Processing System and (I
2
C, SPI, GPIO, UART) soft peripherals
that interface to the Pmod ports. This is 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.
