ZC702 Quickstart
This guide provides quick instructions on how to setup the AD-FMCOMMS2-EBZ or AD-FMCOMMS3-EBZ or AD-FMCOMMS4-EBZ on:
ZC702 on FMC1 LPC
Using Linux as software
Necessary files
Note
The SD card includes several folders in the root directory of the BOOT partition. In order to configure the SD card to work with a specific FPGA board and ADI hardware, several files must be copied onto the root directory. Using the host PC, drag and drop the required files onto the BOOT partition, and use the EJECT function when removing the SD card from the reader.
The following files are needed for the system to boot:
HDL boot image:
BOOT.binLinux Kernel image:
uImageLinux device tree:
devicetree.dtb
They can either be taken from the SD card – already generated by us, or you can build them manually:
Instructions on how to choose the boot files from the SD card can be found in the Platform-Specific Manual Steps section from here Hardware Configuration.
Instructions on how to manually build the boot files from source can be found here:
FMCOMMS2/3/4 HDL Project build documentation. More HDL build details at Build an HDL project.
Important
Some projects provide multiple devicetree files in the SD card’s boot folders. Make sure you select the devicetree that matches your specific use case.
Required software
SD Card 16GB imaged with Kuiper
A UART terminal (Putty/Tera Term/Minicom, etc.) with baud rate 115200 (8N1)
Required hardware
ZC702 and its power supply (12V)
AD-FMCOMMS2-EBZ / AD-FMCOMMS3-EBZ / AD-FMCOMMS4-EBZ FMC evaluation board
Mini-USB cable
Ethernet cable
2x SMA cable or Antenna
(Optional) USB keyboard & mouse and a HDMI compatible monitor (Full HD only)
More details as to why you need these, can be found at Prerequisites for AD9361/AD9364 based boards.
Testing
Creating the setup
All the products described on this page include ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive devices. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000V readily accumulate on the human body or test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the boards feature ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality. This includes removing static charge on external equipment, cables, or antennas before connecting to the device.
In the following example, we will make a physical loopback between the ADC and the DAC channels on the evaluation board, using SMA cables.
Follow the steps in this order, to avoid damaging the components:
Get the ZC702
Note
Early versions of the ZC702 may require a workaround for AR# 51438 (PG signal does not assert by default).
Configure ZC702 for SD BOOT (SW16: 1-OFF, 2-OFF, 3-ON, 4-ON, 5-OFF)
Insert the SD card into the SD Card Interface Connector
Plug the AD-FMCOMMS2-EBZ FMC board into the FMC1 LPC Connector
Plug the Power Supply into 12V Power input connector (DO NOT turn the device on)
Plug-in an Ethernet cable from your router/switch to the Ethernet port on the FPGA board
Connect USB UART (Mini-USB) to your host PC
Turn on the power switch on the FPGA board
Wait ~30 seconds for the “DONE” LED to turn green (above the power switch)
Observe Kernel and serial console output messages on your terminal
You can also connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse directly to the board for a local connection. The UART connection is still recommended for debugging purposes. For the local connection, follow these additional steps:
Plug your HDMI display device into the HDMI Video Connector.
Plug your USB mouse/keyboard into the USB 2.0 ULPI Controller, w/ Micro-B Connector. You will have to use a USB hub to connect both mouse and keyboard. Some keyboards have a mouse or touch pad sharing the same USB connection or wireless dongle. This can be used to eliminate the use of a USB hub.
Wait another ~30 seconds for the HDMI display device to start showing signs of life.
Note
The USB 2.0 circuit requires specific jumper settings for OTG mode. Ensure the following jumper settings on the ZC702 board:
Shunt J7
J33 → Shunt pins 2–3
J35 → Shunt pins 1–2
J34 → Shunt pins 1–2

Useful commands for the serial terminal
The below commands are to be run in the serial terminal connected to the FPGA.
To find out the IP of the FPGA board, run the following command and take the IP specified at “eth0 inet”:
~$
ifconfig
To see the IIO devices detected, run:
~$
iio_info | grep iio:device
iio:device0: ad7291
iio:device1: ad9361-phy
iio:device2: xadc
iio:device3: cf-ad9361-dds-core-lpc (buffer capable)
iio:device4: cf-ad9361-lpc (buffer capable)
To power off the system, run the following command, and wait for the final message to be printed, then power off the FPGA board from the switch as well.
~$
poweroff
To reboot the system, run:
~$
reboot
Important
Even thought this is Linux, this is a persistent file systems. Care should
be taken not to corrupt the file system – please shut down things, don’t
just turn off the power switch. Depending on your monitor, the standard
power off could be hiding. You can do this from the terminal as well with
sudo shutdown -h now or the above-mentioned command for powering off.
