The files run_synth.tcl, design_settings.tcl and advanced_settings.tcl are located at the root level. The run_synth.tcl script contains the minimum required settings to run the synthesis portion of this Dynamic Function eXchange design. The design_settings.tcl script selects the target device and board and sets relative paths for the project. The advanced_settings.tcl contains default flow settings and should only be modified by experienced users.
In run_synth.tcl for this specific lab,
under flow control, you can control which modules are synthesized. In the tutorial, as
the name implies, only synthesis is run by this script; implementation, verification,
and bitstream generation are run interactively. The full DFX scripts from Labs 1 and 2
are not currently set up to run Nested DFX
In design_settings.tcl, under Define
target demo board, you can select one of four demonstration boards supported for this
design. The script is delivered targeting the VCU118, so if you wish to target a
different board, make the edit here. This lab currently targets the following AMD development platforms:
- KCU116 (AMD Kintex™ UltraScale+™ )
- VCU118 (AMD Virtex™ UltraScale+™ )
- KCU105 (AMD Kintex™ UltraScale™ )
- VCU108 (AMD Virtex™ UltraScale™ )
