So I wanted to implement a simple, stripped down version of the open-source lightweight IP stack “lwIP” (https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/lwip/) inside my LabVIEW FPGA project that I can handle TCP and UDP data streams. I do not have a lot of experience with this, and I found that building such a project inside Vivado would take around … Read more

So I have figured out how to use the MicroBlaze Core with an AXI-Stream FIFO, and I have also figured out how to export a project from Vivado by using the Vivado “Write Project TCL” option. See the following project: https://github.com/JohnStratoudakis/LabVIEW_Fpga/tree/master/06_MicroBlaze/04_lwIP_Ex You have to re-generate the Vivado Project and create a new SDK workspace in … Read more
