To overcome bottlenecks due to sequential processing in embedded systems, FPGAs provide massive parallelism to create an application data path. AMD supports such heterogeneous FPGA and CPU designs with the Vitis™ unified software platform. It allows projects for low-level hardware drivers to be embedded in one platform that can be easily incorporated with the application-level projects that derive tasks to be accelerated in high-level programming languages, e.g., C/C++. The toolchain provides various APIs to control the offloaded functionality from the CPU to FPGA kernels.
This workshop gets the software developer started on the Vitis™ unified software platform by introducing the processing system based on Zynq™ SoC and MPSoC architectures. Software development knowledge for the standalone cores is provided to cover the basic operation and low-level services. Application development on the OS level is combined with insight into driver development that finally defines an extensible platform. Such platforms are provided by AMD for all common development kits, even adding new kernel topologies like Versal™ adaptive SoC AI Engines.
This course provides insights into the Vitis™ tools for defining the kernels, setting up the respective connectivity and the system level build to integrate all components. It combines the content of the workshop »Compact Vitis for the Software Designer« and »Compact Vitis for Acceleration«.
Due to accompanying exercises, the course offers in-depth and practice-oriented training. Attendees of the online live training will perform the practical exercises in real time with instructor assistance.
