LeNet Design Build

In this section, you build and run the LeNet design. You also compile the AI Engine-ML design and integrate it into a larger system design (including the PL kernels and PS host application). You can review Integrating the Application Section in the AI Engine-ML Documentation for the general flow. The following image shows the Vitis tool flow with the make targets (in blue) and input source files and output file generation (in red) at each step.

At the end of this section, the design flow generates a new directory (called build/) that contains the Work/, hw_emu/, and hw/ subfolders. The Work/ subfolder is an output from the AI Engine-ML compiler. The hw_emu/ subfolder contains the build for hardware emulation. The hw/ subfolder contains the build for hardware run on a VEK280 board.
