Prototyping Flow
|
||||
================
|
||||
|
||||
Chipyard supports FPGA prototyping for local FPGAs supported by `fpga-shells <https://github.com/sifive/fpga-shells>`__.
|
||||
This includes popular FPGAs such as the Xilinx VCU118 and the Xilinx Arty board.
|
||||
FPGA prototyping allows for orders-of-magnitude faster speeds than software RTL simulators at the cost of slower compile times and less design introspection.
|
||||
|
||||
.. Note:: While ``fpga-shells`` also supports Xilinx VC707 and some MicroSemi PolarFire boards, currently only the VCU118 and Arty boards are explicitly supported in Chipyard.
|
||||
However, using the VCU118/Arty examples would be useful to see how to implement VC707/PolarFire support.
