hls-project

A basic setup for generating HLS projects.

This repo acts as a template for creating new HLS project.

To generate the project, follow these steps:

1. Open Vitis HLS Command Line
2. Change directory to hls-project location
3. Start a Vitis HLS tcl Command Line with vitis_hls -f
4. (Optional) Obtain your FPGA's part number. Call list_part to obtain supported FPGA families. Find your FPGA family and then call list_part <family> in order to obtain supported FPGA parts.
5. In checkout.tcl change Vitis HLS Project User Settings variables to reflect custom project (FPGA part and clk period (in ns))
6. In checkout.tcl change Vitis HLS IP Package Settings variables to customize the package process (IP version, name, description and vendor)
7. Run source checkout.tcl

If you don't need to access the tcl command line, the checkout script can be sourced with vitis_hls -f checkout.tcl alone.
