Nexys 4 XADC Demo

This simple XADC Demo project demonstrates a simple usage of the Nexys 4's XADC port capability. The behavior is as follows:

• The 16 User LEDs increment from right to left as the voltage difference on the selected XADC pins gets larger.
• The two seven segment displays show the voltage difference on the AD11 pins in volts.
• sw0 and sw1 select which channel to read from

• Nexys 4 FPGA board
• Micro-USB cable
• Wires and a voltage to measure

• Vivado Design Suite 2016.4
  • Newer versions can be used, but the procedure may vary slightly
• Nexys 4 Support Files
  • These files will describeGPIOinterfaces on your board and make it easier to select your FPGA board and addGPIOIP blocks.

Follow theUsing Digilent Github Demo ProjectsTutorial. This is an HDL design project, and as such does not support Vivado SDK, select the tutorial options appropriate for a Vivado-only design. As you will not need to set up your circuit to be measured until after the board is programmed, you do not need to return to this guide when prompted to check for extra hardware requirements and setup.

This portion will help you run the demo and observe all its features.

For this demo, the AD11P and AD11N pins are used on the JXADC header. We hooked up a signal generator to our pins. All of the other pins were grounded to avoid coupling.

The 7-Segment display shows the current voltage across the selected xadc pins. The LEDs turn on from right to left as the input voltage increases.

To display a different channel on the display and LEDs, select a channel from the table below and set switches sw0 and sw1 to the appropriate position.
