Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / Re: TE0722 not detected by viv...

Last post by vertapple - Today at 11:01:27 AM

Good day,

I attached the 3.3V and ground to the pins between P7 and P8 as shown here. perhaps these are not the correct pins?

The current consumption from the power supply was typically around 0.16 A (I thought this a bit high but drew it up to the SOM and the programmer being on the supply).

I have not measured the one time voltage but will be able to once I'm back in the lab.

When I switch back to the TE0790 it does work again.

I appreciate the assistance.

Hi,
you must program Boot.bin into qspi flash. Boot.bin contains FSBL, bitstream and application. Writing to the configuration ram is only for bitstream. PS is not included in this case.

You can use our scripts from the reference design to configure flash or instantiate flash(right click on FPGA and add configuration device --> select --> s25fl128s-3.3v-qspi-x4-single) by yourself in vivado.

Hi,
on which pin did you connect your external power supply(3.3V and GND)?
What's the current consumption when you use your laboratory power supply?
Can you measure one time 3.3V voltage on the module?
When you switch back to TE0790 supply, than it's working again?

I also forgot to mention I have searched for similar issues, found them but the solutions did not work.

here are the other forums I looked at:

Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / TE0722 not detected by vivado ...

Last post by vertapple - October 02, 2024, 10:01:43 PM

Good day,

For context, I am very new to FPGAs, SOCs, vivado and all this stuff.

I have a simple vivado design to turn on the RGB LED, when I power the TE0722 via the the TE0790 (S2 set to on, off, on, on) and auto connect with the hardware manager and program the device. It works just fine!

But when I power via an external supply (TE0790 S2 set to on, off, off, off) and repeat all the above steps I get the "ERROR: [Labtools 27-2269] No devices detected on target localhost:..." and cannot proceed.

I followed the steps from the FAQ, followed the steps from the TE0722 recovery and updated any and all drivers and can't get it to work.

If it's of use, I'm using a siglent SPD 3303C power supply in my uni lab.

Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / ERROR: End of startup status: ...

Last post by r7 - October 02, 2024, 08:38:03 PM

Hello,

My board is TE0726-04-41C94-A.
I'm trying to put BOOT.bin from TE0726-zynqberrydemo1-vivado_2022.2-build_9_20240118115537.zip on QSPI Flash in Vivado Lab 2024.1 but there is an error:
"ERROR: [Labtools 27-3165] End of startup status: LOW".

I tried the following:
- JTAG-HS3 Programming Cable
- Dip switch S1 set to both positions
- If I use hardware zynqberrydemo1_m_512MB.bit instead of BOOT.bin, everything is ok.

Here https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/display/PD/FAQ I found that insufficient external power supply can cause this issue. Is this is the case? If so how to add external power?

Hi,

we do not support native Yocto yet. But also we will shift our support towards this flow in the future.


Currently TE0715 status for 2023.2 is that os is not yet migrated. I am sorry I cannot give you an ETA yet, but I will see if we can expedite a little bit.

Upon further investigation I've found that:

When running a PetaLinux-built image built from 2024.1 onwards, you will see the following banner:
"The PetaLinux source code and images provided/generated are for demonstration purposes only"

https://xilinx-wiki.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/A/pages/2741928025/Moving+from+PetaLinux+to+Production+Deployment

So basically if you want to be CRA compliant, you need to Roll-Your-Own Yocto Linux andyour boards that have a reference design in a (2 years old) "demonstration purposes only" OS and you provide no support for Yocto?

Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / Advice Needed for FPGA Board S...

Last post by davidmillerdavid - September 26, 2024, 01:40:17 PM

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project that involves high-speed data acquisition and processing and I am looking for some advice on choosing the right FPGA development board. I have been exploring options available on Trenz Electronic's site but I am a bit overwhelmed with the variety of boards available.

Here are a few key requirements for my project:

• The FPGA should have high I/O capabilities as it will be interfacing with multiple sensors.
• I need a board that supports at least 1Gbps Ethernet for fast data transfer.
• It should also offer good support for development tools (ideally Vivado or Quartus).
• Power efficiency is important since the system will be operating continuously in an embedded environment.

I have been looking at the Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC boards and the Intel Arria 10 boards but I am not sure which would best suit my needs. Has anyone here worked with these or similar boards from Trenz Electronic: ?? I would love to hear your thoughts on which board might be the most suitable for my application or if there are other alternatives I should consider.

Thanks in advance for your help !!

UltraScale / TE0802 Enable RPU

Last post by olsky - September 25, 2024, 02:52:31 PM

Hi there,

would it be possible to have a detailed info on hot to modify the existing TE-test-board project (vivado+vitis) to enable RPU / R5?

I have started the preloaded binaries on TE0802 -- but the r5 is not available in device_tree. So I would like to use the same sample-app and PL but with R5 accessible from PetaLinux (remoteproc).

Thank you in advance
