Datamover on AAT Demo After Both tutorial on AAT demo focusing on the running the AAT. Now, it is time to look in its features which is called Datamover. The Datamover provides a bi-directional datapath to the host. The uplink is used for transferring the updated Orderbook and the downlink transfer the requests to trade. There are 2 types of...

From the previous topic about AAT Demo, Testing AAT demo by using physical hardware consumes much time in the compiling process. Therefore, it is not a practical method in the developing phase. Hardware Emulation might be a better choice when developing algorithms or hardwares. Environment On this test This test is conducted on AAT demo compatible with Vitis 2021.1 on...

For Turnkey Accelerator System (TKAS-D2101) with Alveo U250 Card and Xilinx Vitis™ Unified Software Platform 2021.1 Based on Xilinx’s Vitis™ Application Acceleration Development Flow Tutorials: bottom_up_rtl_kernel This tutorial introduces a bottom-up Vitis-based RTL kernel construct and wrap-up process, as well as the host-kernel interaction with Xilinx Runtime library (XRT). All the steps in this tutorial use the command-line interface, except...

The AAT demo is an example of trading algorithm which is running on Alveo card. After building an example, testing demo is required in order to proof that the hardware is work and being a good start for developing on other protocols. Computer’s Preparation In this tutorial, we will illustrate testing AAT demo on U50 and 10 Gb Ethernet card...

Based on Xilinx’s VitisTM Application Acceleration Development Flow Tutorial: https://github.com/Xilinx/Vitis-Tutorials/tree/2021.2/Hardware_Acceleration/Feature_Tutorials/04-mult-ddr-banks By default, the data transfer between the Kernel and the DDR is accomplished by using single DDR. In some applications, transferring large amount of data between global memory (DDR) and FPGA can be a cause of performance dropped. Using multiple DDR banks can be one of the solutions. Therefore, this...

For Turnkey Accelerator System (TKAS-D2101) with Alveo U250 Card and Xilinx Vitis™ Unified Software Platform 2021.1 Based on Xilinx’s Vitis™ Application Acceleration Development Flow Tutorials: Mixing C++ and RTL Kernels This tutorial is split into two parts: In the first part, you will build an application (host and kernel) with one C++ based kernel. The host code, including the kernel...
