Vivado for Experienced Xilinx Users | Albuquerque, NM
Course Description
This custom class bridges the gap for existing ISE users, Moving to Vivado 2014.1 (or later). This is a comprehensive update and introduction to the most powerful and useful features of Xilinx Vivado® Design Suite. You’ll learn the underlying database and static timing analysis (STA) mechanisms.
You’ll learn to utilize Tcl for navigating the design, creating the complete range of Xilinx design timing constraints (XDC), and creating timing reports.
That includes multi-cycle paths, false path, and min/max timing constraints.
Finally, you will learn how to maximize productivity by using the Vivado Tcl scripting capabilities for both the project-based and non-project batch flows, as well as Guided Design Flows.
