Linux Build Environment updated

The Enclustra Linux Build Environment (EBE) is a free tool which can be used to create the Linux Board Support Package (BSP) for all Enclustra SoC modules at the touch of a button. To do this, only the target module and a base board need be selected. Once this step has been completed, the tool generates all the binary files necessary in a fully automatic process. The latest version of the EBE now also supports the Enclustra Mercury XU5 Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC module. What’s more, Kernel (Linux 4.14/4.15), U-Boot and Buildroot have also been updated. It takes just two clicks to get your hands on the latest version including the changelog: Enclustra Linux Build Environment.

FPGA Manager supports PCIe Gen3 & UltraScale+

Enclustra is continuously developing its IP cores to support both new technologies such as PCIe Gen3 as well as new modules such as the Xilinx UltraScale+ series. Every license holder of the relevant options with active maintenance will of course be able to benefit from the updates and improvements at no extra cost.

The next FPGA Manager release will now support PCIe Gen3 for Xilinx UltraScale+ modules and achieve data transfer rates of over 3 GByte/sec (Gen3 x4). The new release also contains numerous optimized and improved features. From now on, the API library will also be supplied as a NuGet package, which will make integration and updating significantly easier. Have you tried this out yet?
