GR-XC3S-1500 Dev. Board (1/2)

• Connect the power supply, serial interface,
  ethernet interface, and JTAG interface
• Set the IP address of the host PC to 10.0.0.1,
  with subnet mask 255.255.255.0

Power supply
Serial interface
Ethernet interface
JTAG interface

GR-XC3S-1500 Dev. Board (2/2)

• Install jumpers JP9 1-2 and 5-6
• This sets the FPGA in JTAG configuration mode and
  allows the configuration process to be controlled
  from the Host PC via the JTAG cable

• Run the installer to install

11
Xilinx ISE (5/5)
12
Cygwin (1/4)

• The setup.exe utility tracks the versions of all
  installed components and provides the mechanism
  for installing or updating everything available
  for Cygwin
• Used Cygwin DLL release version is 1.5.25-15

13
Cygwin (2/4)

• Make sure the following packages are installed
• autoconfig
• automake
• gcc
• make
• sharutils
• tcltk
• zlib

15
Cygwin (4/4)

• Start Cygwin from desktop after installation for
  system initialization

16
BCC GRMON (1/2)

• Obtain the Cygwin version of BCC here
• Used version sparc-elf-3.4.4-1.0.29d-cygwin.tar.b
  z2
• Obtain the Evaluation/Academic version of GRMON
  here
• Used version grmon-eval-1.1.32.tar.gz
• Put the two files in your CYGWIN_INSTALL_DIR\home\
  USER\

17
BCC GRMON (2/2)

• Start Cygwin
• Under the home of the user
• mkdir /opt
• tar zxf grmon-eval-1.1.32.tar.gz -C /opt
• tar jxf sparc-elf-3.4.4-1.0.29d-cygwin.tar.bz2 -C
  /opt
• Open file .bashrc under your home, and append the
  following line at the end of the file
• export PATH/opt/grmon-eval/cygwin/opt/sparc-elf
  -3.4.4/binPATH
• The paths will take effect after Cygwin restart

18
GHDL

• Obtain GHDL Cygwin build here
• Used version ghdl-0.27-cygwin.bz2
• Put the file in your Cygwin home directory
• tar jxf ghdl-0.27-cygwin.bz2 -C /
• Open file .bashrc under your home, and append the
  following line at the end of the file

• The paths will take effect after Cygwin restart

19
GTKWave

• Obtain GTKWave Windows port and the needed DLLs
  here
• Used version GTKWave 3.1.6
• Extract the two files into the same folder

20
eCos Library (1/8)

• Obtain the eCos source package here

eCos Library (2/8)

• Start eCos Configuration Tool
• Choose folder for eCos repository
• Choose the folder where you just extract your
  eCos source package (i.e. under your /opt
  directory)
• The folder can also be set through Build ?
  Repository

22
eCos Library (3/8)

• Build ? Template
• Select LEON3 processor with GRETH ethermac
• Select net under Packages to include the
  TCP/IP stack in the OS
• Click Continue to resolve symbol conflicts

23
eCos Library (4/8)
