Introduction

Vivado is the new fpga design tool from Xilinx. It replace ISE and XPS tools for new product. By default, no Armadeus board has new Xilinx fpga that could be targeted by Vivado. But with the new APF6 we can use Artix7 with PCIe on a daughter board (or with Xilinx dev-kit and apf6dev pcie connector) and enjoy the new Xilinx-tool. This page is a tutorial to install Vivado on debian-linux host computer.

Note Note: Vivado can't be used with spartan products, it begin with 7 serie fpga (artix7, virtex7, zynq, kintex7, ...)
