ADV7511 HDL project#

Overview#

The ADV7511 is a 225 MHz High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI®) transmitter, which is ideal for home entertainment products including DVD players/recorders, digital set top boxes, A/V receivers, gaming consoles, and PCs.

The digital video interface contains an HDMI 1.4- and a DVI 1.0-compatible transmitter, and supports all HDTV formats (including 1080p with 12-bit Deep Color). The ADV7511 supports the HDMI 1.4-specific features, HEAC (ARC), and 3D video. In addition to these features, the ADV7511 supports x.v.Color™, high bit rate audio, and programmable AVI InfoFrames. With the inclusion of HDCP, the ADV7511 allows the secure transmission of protected content as specified by the HDCP 1.4 protocol.

The ADV7511 supports both S/PDIF and 8-channel I2S audio. Its high fidelity 8-channel I2S can transmit either stereo or 7.1 surround audio up to 768 kHz. The S/PDIF can carry compressed audio including Dolby® Digital, DTS®, and THX®. Fabricated in an advanced CMOS process, the ADV7511 is provided in a 100-lead LQFP surface-mount plastic package and is specified over the 0°C to +70°C temperature range.

Supported devices#

Supported carriers#

Block design#

The reference design uses HDL-related HDMI cores in order to interface the ADV7511 IC into the ZC702/ZC706/Zed evaluation kits.

Block diagram#

The data path and clock domains when interfacing the ADV7511 IC with the FPGA SoCs, and the internal HDL-related components are illustrated below:

CPU/Memory interconnects addresses#

The addresses are dependent on the architecture of the FPGA, having an offset added to the base address from HDL(see more at HDL Architecture).

Building the HDL project#

The design is built upon ADI’s generic HDL reference design framework. ADI distributes the bit/elf files of these projects as part of the ADI Kuiper Linux. If you want to build the sources, ADI makes them available on the HDL repository. To get the source you must clone the HDL repository, and then build the project as follows:.

Linux/Cygwin/WSL

1user@analog:~$ cd hdl/projects/adv7511/zed
2user@analog:~/hdl/projects/adv7511/zed$ make

A more comprehensive build guide can be found in the Build an HDL project user guide.

Support#

Analog Devices, Inc. will provide limited online support for anyone using the reference design with ADI components via the EngineerZone FPGA reference designs forum.

For questions regarding the ADI Linux device drivers, device trees, etc. from our Linux GitHub repository, the team will offer support on the EngineerZone Linux software drivers forum.

For questions concerning the ADI No-OS drivers, from our No-OS GitHub repository, the team will offer support on the EngineerZone microcontroller No-OS drivers forum.

It should be noted, that the older the tools’ versions and release branches are, the lower the chances to receive support from ADI engineers.
