Microblaze Quick Reference Guide Supplement

This guide describes how to install board support and example designs for Digilent development boards into Vivado. This will allow the instructions described in the Hardware Development section of the MicroBlaze Soft Processor Quick Reference Guide to be completed.

Digilent Example Designs

1. Download the Digilent example design package linked above.
2. Unzip the package to a location of your choice.
3. Start Vivado.
4. At the Vivado tcl console source the top-level init.tcl file using this command:

source <Location of Unzipped Package>/Digilent_MicroBlaze_Designs/init.tcl

Now you should be able to begin at the second step under Hardware Development on the Quick Start Guide (Choose Create Project).
