Created by the AMD University Team for its academic program PYNQ fuses the productivity of python with the performance of the programmable logic available within the Zynq and MPSoC.

​

This workshop will introduce the PYNQ framework and demonstrate the applicability of PYNQ for a range of uses in a professional environment from accelerating prototyping of algorithms to providing PYNQ enabled test systems.

​

As a hands on workshop, this workshop walk attendees through several applications along with showing attendees how to create custom PYNQ overlays using Vivado.

​

Key Aspects Covered will be

• What is PYNQ

• How PYNQ can benefit your project

• The PYNQ Framework – Overlays, IP and Drivers

• Working with PYNQ and Jupyter

• Libraries

• Registers Maps

• MicroBlaze in PYNQ Ecosystem

• Advanced PYNQ – Compossible overlays and Partial Reconfiguration

• Outline of the PYNQ overlay creation process – Including key rules and considerations

Hands on creation of PYNQ application demonstrating the ease of creating and testing algorithms with PYNQ
