Step 1: Create a Flat Design in Vivado IP Integrator - 2023.1 English

1. Open the AMD Vivado™ IDE. In the Tcl Console, navigate to the folder where the tutorial archive has been unzipped.
2. Source the first Tcl script to create a flat version of the design that will target the VCK190.

   source create_top_bd.tcl

This script performs a few tasks:

• Creates a new project for a VCK190 target
• Adds and customizes a collection of IP
• Connects the IP within the block design
• Validates and saves the block design

The create_top_bd.tcl script was generated from an existing block design by calling write_bd_tcl -no_ip_version. The only modification made to this script was to customize the project name from the default.

The following figure shows the initial block design.
