The Xillybus Forum

Hello All,
I am a beginner and I am in a learning phase.I am doing a small project on microzed and I am using Xillybus. I have a set of different signals which will be coming to my FPGA and then I have to send this signal out from the FPGA through the ethernet. To start with and to get some experience, I made a 8 bit counter and then fed the output of the counter to the FIFO. Then using the command cat /dev/xillybus_read_8, I am able to see the counter values in the terminal. Now I would like to save that values into a particular location in the ARM. Can you please tell me how I can save the values in a particular location. Suggestions, examples, links or documents related to this will be very helpful. If you want to know anything more then please let me know.


Thanks

Hello,

Could you please explain what you mean with saving that value in a "particular location"? Also, could you explain why you want to do that?

As for getting data out through Ethernet, the Microzed is a 32-bit Linux machine for all purposes. So if you want to do anything software-wise, any classic UNIX/Linux techniques apply. You may use TCP/IP, UDP and raw Ethernet packets, based upon coding API that you'll find anywhere on the web regarding Linux programming.
