Lab 1: Simple Hardware Design Targeting MicroBlaze™ on XUP Spartan™-3E
Lab 1: Simple Hardware Design Lab
Introduction
This lab guides you through the process of using Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS) to create a simple processor system. An MHS file and design netlists will be created.
Objectives
After completing this lab, you will be able to:
∙Create an XPS project by using the Base System Builder (BSB)
∙Create a simple hardware design by using Xilinx IPs available in the Embedded Development Kit
Procedure
The purpose of the lab exercises is to walk you through a complete hardware and software processor system design. Each lab will build upon the previous lab. The following diagram represents the completed design (Figure 1-1).

In this lab, you will use the BSB of the XPS system to create a processor system consisting of the following processor IP (Figure 1-2):
∙microblaze
∙opb_mdm
∙BRAM
∙OPB bus
∙LMB BRAM controllers for BRAM
∙UART for serial communication
∙GPIO for LEDs

This lab comprises three primary steps: You will create a project using the Base System Builder, analyze the created project, and generate the processor and hardware IP netlists.
For each procedure within a primary step, there are general instructions (indicated by the symbol). These general instructions only provide a broad outline for performing the procedure. Below these general instructions, you will find accompanying step-by-step directions and illustrated figures that provide more detail for performing the procedure. If you feel confident about completing a procedure, you can skip the step-by-step directions and move on to the next general instruction.
Creating the Project Using the Base System Builder
Step 1
General Flow for this Lab:
Launch Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS) and create a project file in
c :\xup\embedded\labs\lab1 by using Base System Builder for the XUP Spartan-3E board. Select the MicroBlaze™ processor, the processor –bus clock frequency as 50 MHz an
d On-Chip H/W debug modul
e as the debug interface.
