AXI DMA and debugging with ILA, part 1: Vivado design

Описание: implementation of AXI Direct Memory Access (DMA) in FPGA design using Vivado.

The video begins with a detailed explanation of AXI DMA's architecture and its role in efficiently transferring data between DDR memory and programmable logic (PL), offloading the ARM core from heavy data movement tasks.

viewers learn how to:

Set up a basic Vivado project with Zynq UltraScale+ IP
Configure and implement AXI DMA with proper port connections
Create a loopback design for testing
Set up Integrated Logic Analyzer (ILA) for debugging
Configure interrupt handling
Validate address mapping and generate bitstream
