Chapter 1

Getting Started with the

Kintex-7 FPGA KC705 Embedded Kit

Introduction

The Kintex®-7 FPGA embedded kit conveniently delivers the key components of the

Xilinx® Embedded Targeted Design Platform (TDP) required for developing embedded

software and hardware in a wide range of applications in the broadcast, industrial,

medical, and aerospace and defense markets. For software developers, a familiar

Eclipse-based integrated development environment (IDE), GNU tools, operating systems,

libraries, and a pre-verified reference design enables them to start programming right

away. Similarly, hardware designers now have immediate access to a pre-integrated

MicroBlaze™ processor subsystem that includes the most commonly used peripheral IP

cores, enabling the designers to begin at once developing their custom logic.

This getting started guide identifies the steps required to set up the KC705 board and run

the out-of-box video demonstration, which illustrates the flexibility and capability of a

MicroBlaze processor subsystem for embedded design. If the Xilinx ISE® software has not

already been installed, the user is directed through the steps to install the software, get

updates, and generate a license.
