Nexys 4 DDR GPIO Demo
Overview
Description
The Basic User Demo project demonstrates a simple use of the Nexys4-DDR's GPIOs and UART port. The behavior is as follows:
-
The 16 User LEDs are tied to the 16 User Switches.
-
The 7-Segment display counts from 0 to 9 on each of its 8 digits. Also, single anodes of the 7-Segment display are blanked by holding BTNU, BTNL, BTND, or BTNR. Holding the center button blanks all the 7-Segment anodes.
-
An introduction message is sent across the UART when the device is finished being configured.
-
A message is sent over UART whenever BTNU, BTNL, BTND, or BTNR is pressed.
-
The Tri-Color LEDs cycle through several colors in a ~4 second loop.
-
数据from the microphone is collected and transmitted over the mono audio out port.
-
The demo is reset whenever BTNC is pressed.

Downloads
Download and Launch the Nexys 4 DDR Basic User Demo
1) Follow theUsing Digilent Github Demo Projects教程。这是一个HDL设计项目,和苏ch does not support Vivado SDK, select the tutorial options appropriate for a Vivado-only design. Return to this guide when prompted to check for extra hardware requirements and setup.
2) In order to fully use the demo, you will need to connect a serial terminal to your Nexys DDR. Plug your board into your computer with Micro USB cables attached to the PROG+UART port and make sure the board is turned on. Then open a serial terminal (such as TeraTerm) on your computer. In the terminal application, setup the serial port to connect to the appropriate port for your board, with a baud rate of 9600. Then return to the Github Projects Tutorial to finish programming and running the demo.
