TE0725-02-15-1C - Constrain file ?

[mateuszk]

Hi,

I would like to ask for constrain file for TE0725-02-15-1C product. Getting it with some scripts provided is quite involving, and I don't get it.
I just want to set up simple project and use constrain file provided. Can someone attach this file here ?

Thanks

Hi,

You can use reference projects, each contain constraints for this board

Thanks,
Looks like I had to download prebuild zip file to find it. Are there any plans on the same type of board as TE0725-02-15-1C but with Zynq+RAM same size and breadboard friendly headers ?

Hi,

the reference project contains board part files and some basic settings for config and bitgen options in a xdc file. Folder structure of the reference design, see: https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/display/PD/Project+Delivery#ProjectDelivery-Directorystructure
You can use the reference project as template or install board parts only like descripted here: https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/display/PD/Installation
We also provide a Master Pinout Excel sheets (with macros) with pin location constrains generation option: https://shop.trenz-electronic.de/en/Download/?path=Trenz_Electronic/Pinout
If you did not have MS-Excel, write a request to our support mail and we generate the files and table for the TE0725.

You find a list of our current Zynq modules here: https://shop.trenz-electronic.de/en/Products/Trenz-Electronic/TE07XX-Zynq-SoC/
For most of them we provide some simple carrierboards to map the FPGA IOs from B2B-Connector to simple pin header.

Hi,

I knew about the list of Zynq boards on your website. If that's the answer to my question about plans on Zynq based similar board, should I consider this as "No" ?
With carrier-boards it gets rapidly extremely expensive (not affordable for me as just a board is quite a stretch) and even more importantly way not small enough for my application.

It feels there is nothing between DIPFORTy1 which is small but has no RAM to run operating system, and Artix-7 35T FPGA Module which is still small enough, has broken out breadboard friendly pins and RAM but it lacks ARM core.
I asked on #electronics FreeNode, and there seems to be interest in similar boards with Zynq instead of Artix however no one could advise where to buy such one, I think snikkerdoddle (also a bit too big) is closest but they're not selling yet.

Hi,

i would show you only all our currently available Zynq modules.
Our chief developer is on business trip for next days, so i can't say, if a similar board is planned or not. But we are also developing customized PCBs. Is this a option for you? If you are interested, please write to our support.

Hi John,

I will keep my eye on your website on new products then. Unfortunately, I am can't afford requesting custom PCB, as I would be interested only in single board myself.

Thanks for answers though!
