Vivado HLS Design Flow

For software engineers new to FGPA design and for FPGA design experts new to High-Level Synthesis (HLS), the Introduction to FPGA Design with Vivado HLS provides a complete background on FPGA devices, High-Level Synthesis and C modeling for hardware.

To get started using Vivado HLS, refer to the Vivado QuickTake video Getting Started with Vivado High-Level Synthesis. Details on using the Tcl interface are presented in the Vivado QuickTake video Using the Vivado HLS Tcl Interface.

Design Examples

The Vivado HLS Tutorial provides 10 tutorials covering every aspect of the Vivado HLS flow from simulating the C code to verification of the RTL design. 

The tutorial exercises also demonstrate how to integrate the Vivado HLS output IP into the rest of the system, including all steps to operate an IP block under processor control on a Zynq device. The location of the design files is noted at the start of each tutorial exercise.

The design flow to implement a Vivado HLS design in a Zynq device using Xilinx Platform Studio, ISE and SDK is detailed in the Application Note XAPP-1170. The location of the design files is noted at the start of the Application Note.

Application Note XAPP-1173 shows how a communications block is optimized with Vivado HLS and integrated into a System Generator for DSP design. The design files for this Application Note are located here.

In addition, a number of design and coding examples are provided with the Vivado HLS software. These can be accessed through the Welcome screen in the GUI or in the examples directory located in the Vivado HLS installation area.
