Getting Started with the Kintex-7 FPGA KC705 Embedded Kit
Introduction
The Kintex®-7 FPGA embedded kit conveniently delivers the key components of the
Xilinx® Embedded Targeted Design Platform (TDP) required for developing embedded
software and hardware in a wide range of applications in the broadcast, industrial,
medical, and aerospace and defense markets. For software developers, a familiar
Eclipse-based integrated development environment (IDE), GNU tools, operating systems,
libraries, and a pre-verified reference design enables them to start programming right
away. Similarly, hardware designers now have immediate access to a pre-integrated
MicroBlaze™ processor subsystem that includes the most commonly used peripheral IP
cores, enabling the designers to begin at once developing their custom logic.
This getting started guide identifies the steps required to set up the KC705 board and run
the out-of-box video demonstration, which illustrates the flexibility and capability of a
MicroBlaze processor subsystem for embedded design. If the Xilinx ISE® software has not
already been installed, the user is directed through the steps to install the software, get
updates, and generate a license.

is dropped and the newest data point is added.
9. In the video demonstration Web page, click Stop Video to stop the video streams and
stop requesting results data packets. After this button is clicked, any pending requests
complete and then no additional data is requested. All the video streams are also
stopped and the monitor displays only the background screen.

12. Reload the Web page with the same URL (192.168.1.10). The Web page should appear
as shown in Figure 1-7.

13. The left side of the Web page has different options for selecting the type of test to run
on the hardware. For running the test, select any option from the list and press the Go
Target button. The right side of the Web page has a messaging section that prints the
results of the tests.
The Video and BIST demonstrations using the KC705 board are complete. Because a fully
configured MicroBlaze processor subsystem has been provided, the user can start
developing embedded applications. Because an FPGA is being used, the processor
subsystem can also be fully customized. To do this, the ISE Design Suite and the
USB-UART driver must be installed on the computer (see Appendix C, Installation and
Licensing of ISE Design Suite).

KC705 USB-UART
This appendix explains the procedure for setting up UART communication between the
KC705 board and the host machine.
Installing the USB-UART driver
1. Execute the installer for the Silicon Labs USB-UART virtual COM port (VCP) driver
from the Drivers_and_Tools folder on the USB drive shipped with the KC705
embedded kit: Drivers_and_Tools\CP210x_VCP_Win2K_XP_S2K3.exe.
2. Follow the installer instructions. Restart the computer when instructed to do so.
Connecting to the KC705 UART
3. Connect a USB Type-A to Mini-B 5-pin cable between the KC705 USB-UART connector
(J21) and the host computer.
4. Power on the KC705 evaluation board if it is not already powered on.
Appendix B
Configuring the Host Computer
5. Right-click on My Computer and select Properties. Select the Hardware tab. Click on
Device Manager.
6. Expand the Ports (COM & LPT) entry as shown in Figure B-1. This shows the COM
port assigned to the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge. This is the COM
port to use in the serial communications program.
Note:
The COM port setting for the user system might be different from the one shown in
Figure B-1.
X-Ref Target - Figure B-1
Figure B-1: Silicon Labs USB to UART Bridge Properties
If the Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART bridge does not appear in the Ports list, a
reboot of the computer might be required. After rebooting, repeat step 5 and step 6.
