This project is intended to demonstrate the capabilities of the `Chips-2.0 `_  development environment. The project is targets the Xilinx Spartan 6 device, and more specifically, the Digilent ATLYS development platform. The demo implements a TCP/IP socket interface, and a simple web application. So far the demonstration has been tested on a Ubuntu Linux only. Some users have reported success using windows.

Dependencies

============

You will need:

+ Xilinx ISE 12.0 or later (webpack edition is free)

+ Python 2.7 or later (but not Python 3)

+ Chips-2.0 (Included)

+ Digilent `ATLYS `_  Spartan 6 Development Kit.

+ Digilent ADEPT2 `utility `_

+ git

Install

=======

Clone the git the repository with git::

    $ git clone https://github.com/dawsonjon/Chips-Demo.git

    $ cd Chips-Demo

    $ git submodule init

    $ git submodule update

Chips Compile

=============

To compile the c code in chips, issue the following command in the project folder::

    $ ./atlys.py compile

Build in ISE

============

Edit the Xilinx variable in the scripts/user_settings to point to the Xilinx ISE install directory. Then build the design using the following command::

    $ ./atlys.py build

Download to ATLYS

=================

Power up the ATLYS, and connect the JTAG USB cable to your PC. Run the download command::

    $ ./atlys.py download

You can complete all three steps in one go using the *all* option::

    $ ./atlys.py all

Connect the Ethernet port to ATLYS, using a crossed over Ethernet cable.

Using the script, configure Ethernet port with IP address 192.168.1.0 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Turn off TCP Window Scaling and TCP time stamps::

    $ ./configure_network

Verify connection using ping command::

    $ ping 192.168.1.1
