Application Note: Kintex®-7 Family AXI VDMA Reference Design for the  Kintex FPGA KC705 Evaluation Board XAPP1218 (v2.0) February 18, 2015 Authors: Dinesh Kumar, Prasad Gutti Summary This application note demonstrates how to use the LogiCORE™ IP AXI Video DMA (VDMA) core in a typical video application. It describes hardware and software APIs. The hardware system uses two VDMAs with both MM2S and S2MM paths shorted. You can refer to this design and use the API in video applications that use VDMA. This application note demonstrates VDMA in loopback mode, but the MM2S and S2MM can also each be connected to separate video IP. The reference design is created and built using Vivado® IP integrator version 2014.4, which is part of Vivado System Edition. The IP integrator is an interactive design and verification environment that you can use to create and verify a hierarchical system by graphically connecting Xilinx, third-party, or proprietary IP, using interface-level connections. It provides a device- and platform-aware, interactive environment that supports intelligent auto-connection of key IP interfaces, one-click IP subsystem generation, real-time DRCs, interface change propagation, and powerful debug capability. The design also includes software built using the Xilinx Software Development Kit (SDK). The software runs on the MicroBlaze™ processor subsystem and implements control, status, and monitoring functions. Complete Vivado tools and SDK project files are provided with the reference design to allow you to examine and rebuild the design or to use as a template for a new design. This app
