Configuration
Please use e310-arty ID for board option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File):
[env:e310-arty]
platform = sifive
board = e310-arty
You can override default Arty FPGA Dev Kit settings per build environment using
board_*** option, where *** is a JSON object path from
board manifest e310-arty.json. For example,
board_build.mcu, board_build.f_cpu, etc.
[env:e310-arty]
platform = sifive
board = e310-arty
; change microcontroller
board_build.mcu = fe310
; change MCU frequency
board_build.f_cpu = 450000000L
Uploading
Arty FPGA Dev Kit supports the following uploading protocols:
ftdijlinkminimoduleolimex-arm-usb-ocdolimex-arm-usb-ocd-holimex-arm-usb-tiny-holimex-jtag-tinytumpa
Default protocol is ftdi
You can change upload protocol using upload_protocol option:
[env:e310-arty]
platform = sifive
board = e310-arty
upload_protocol = ftdi
Debugging
Debugging - “1-click” solution for debugging with a zero configuration.
Warning
You will need to install debug tool drivers depending on your system. Please click on compatible debug tool below for the further instructions and configuration information.
You can switch between debugging Tools & Debug Probes using debug_tool option in “platformio.ini” (Project Configuration File).
Arty FPGA Dev Kit has on-board debug probe and IS READY for debugging. You don’t need to use/buy external debug probe.
