SoC Builder

Build, load, and execute SoC model on SoC-FPGA board

Description

The SoC Builder tool steps through the various stages for building and executing an SoC model on an FPGA board.

Using this tool, you can:

• Review the model information provided to the tool.

• Review the memory map and edit it if needed.

• Set up a folder to store all generated files.

• Choose between different build actions.

• Validate that the model has all required components for generating a programming file.

• Build the model using Xilinx^® Vivado^® or Intel^® Quartus^® tool families.

• Configure the Ethernet connectivity.

• Load the programming file to your FPGA board.

• Run the application.

Open the SoC Builder

• Simulink^® Toolstrip: On the System on Chip tab, click Configure, Build & Deploy.

• Simulink Toolstrip: click the System on Chip tab, and then press Ctrl+B.

• MATLAB^® command prompt: Enter socBuilder('modelname').

Note

If the System on Chip tab is not visible, on the Apps tab, under Setup to Run on Hardware click the System on Chip (SoC) app icon.
