This repository is a tutorial for using High-Level Synthesis cores in PYNQ. It can be used as a three-part lab curriculum, or as a standalone tutorial for PYNQ.

To install this repository, simply run the following commands on your PYNQ board:

git clone https://github.com/drichmond/PYNQ-HLS ~/PYNQ-HLS
sudo -H pip3.6 install ~/PYNQ-HLS

This will clone and install the tutorials to your PYNQ board.

This repository has three topics:

1. Streaming HLS Cores
2. Shared-Memory HLS Cores
3. Real-Time IO HLS Cores

This tutorial teaches a reader how to use an HLS core with AXI-Streaming interfaces in PYNQ. The completed demonstration notebook for this tutorial can be found in <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Demo/streaming. The tutorial notebooks can be found inside the <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Tutorial/streaming

This topic is useful for image and signal processing applications.

This tutorial teaches a reader how to use an HLS core that interacts with memory shared between the ARM PS and FPGA PL. The completed demonstration notebook for this tutorial can be found in <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Demo/streaming. The tutorial notebooks can be found inside the <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Tutorial/streaming

This topic is useful for bulk data processing applications, such as matrix multiply.

This tutorial teaches a reader how to implement and use a Real-Time HLS core. The completed demonstration notebook for this tutorial can be found in <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Demo/streaming. The tutorial notebooks can be found inside the <Jupyter Home>/HLS-Tutorial/streaming
