Designing a FPGA board

Hello,

I am building my own FPGA board as I cannot find one that has all the abilities that I desire. I want to use an Agilex 7 M-Series (specifically the AGMF039R47A1E1V). I cannot find any CAD files that I can import into Alitum. I have all the peripherals on the board, but no controller or hookups. Where can I find said files so I can know how to connect the FPGA? Also, is there a document about how to wire it up with power (e.g. how should I do the power rails)? Once I get the design done, I will need to code the drivers for my peripherals. I am using DDR5 (x2), PCIe x16 Gen 5 (x1), M.2 NVMe (x1), HDMI (x1) and DisplayPort (x1). Where can I find how to code these. I see IPs, but they seemed incomplete. Where can I find how to code in these protocols?

Thank you,

Drew

    Hi Drew,


    Good day to you.

    In design example folder, you'll find Verilog files for IPs that you've generated and compiled. Those are the available ones.


    For Hardware, I may suggest you to open up new forum and that'll be direct to the right team.


    Regards,

    Pavee

    Hello,

    Verilog only? I know VHDL. Is there a way to get those examples in VHDL, or no?

    I can create a new forum for the hardware.

    Thank you,

    Drew

      Hello,

      So, some IP's do not have VHDL, some do. That is disappointing. Also, the image you tried to attach is not showing up, but I know where to go.

      I have created a new thread for hardware design.

      Thank you,

      Drew

    Hi Drew,


    Apologies for the image not loaded. Not sure why it's not up. I believe that you know where to find it but just letting know, its in Design Example Tab.

    I hope you'll get the answers for your hardware queries. Have a great day ahead.
