VxWorks and Xilinx Virtex-II Pro

Sep 24, 2004 1 Replies

Hi all,



We are working with a Memec development board with a Xilinx Virtex-II Pro FPGA. The idea was to run VxWorks on this board. But we seem to have a bit of problems. And it seems very hard to find resources on the internet that uses VxWorks with Xilinx FPGA's.



So I was hoping that anyone here could suggest some places to look out.



Also right now we do not have the com module, so no ethernet and no flash. But we load the SDRAM with the vxworks executable and then jump to that address. Is that a good way, or do you have to go through some ROM-loader?



All help would be greatly appreciated!



With regards Jonas Floden



If you order the ML310 board, it comes with both Linux and Vxworks running. Works quite well. Just plug in and go. Boots up to rs232 console (hyperterm works) and then select among several boot options including Linux and Vxworks. Then you can telnet to the board through the Ethernet.
