As FPGA designs become increasingly more complex, designers continue look to reduce design and debug time. The powerful, yet easy-to-use ChipScope™ Pro tool solution helps minimize the amount of time required for verification and debug.
This two-day course will not only introduce you to the cores and tools and illustrate how to use the triggers effectively, but also show you effective ways to debug logic and high-speed designs—thereby decreasing your overall design development time. This training will provide hands-on labs that demonstrate how the ChipScope Pro tools can address advanced verification and debugging challenges.

LAB DESCRIPTION
Labs 1 and 2: Using the Inserter Tool from the PlanAhead Design Environment or Vivado Design Suite – Insert ICON and ILA cores into an existing netlist and debug a common problem.
Lab 3: Using the CORE Generator Tool from the PlanAhead Design Environment– Build upon a provided design to create and instantiate a VIO core and observe its behavior using the ChipScope Pro Analyzer tool.
Lab 4: Triggering and Visualization in the Analyzer Tool – Configure triggers and view captured data using the ChipScope Pro Analyzer tool.
Lab 5: Tips and Tricks – Keep time across multiple sample windows and sample across multiple time domains.
Lab 6: FPGA Editor Support for the ChipScope Pro Tool – Change the signals being sampled by an ILA without having to reimplement the design.
Lab 7: Remote Access – Use the ChipScope Pro Analyzer tool to configure an FPGA, set up triggering, and view the sampled data from a remote location.
