Write some Software

Zedboard Project I need to make Zedboard to do the following things: 1. Control 8 stepper motors. Zynq will use SPI to communicate with the driver. I would use 8 daisy chained Sparkfun AutoDriver as the motor driver: [login to view URL] You may also use other driver. 2. Control 64 solenoids. Zynq will use I2C to communicate with the driver. I would use 4 daisy chained Adafruit board as the driver: [login to view URL] You can also use other board. 3. Read XADC inputs (6 channels). I have the AMS 101 card already. May need a demultiplexer for the 6-channel inputs. The software includes 2 parts that will run on each Cortex ARM A9 CPUs. The XADC monitoring program will run on CPU1. It will be a real-time program. Operation system will be FreeRTOS, or Xilinx Bare Metal. An interrupt will monitor Channel 1. When the reading is above a threshold, say 1V, the program will read all 6 channels, and save data on memory, also set flag to indicate new data is ready, and set interrupt to CPU0. A Linux program will run on CPU0 to control stepper motors, and solenoids. It will also read the data from CPU1. It will transmit data to a PC program by Ethernet. You will provide the following: 1. Vivado design projects (I have 2015.3 installed). 2. C code for software to run on both CPUs of Zynq. 3. A simple program on PC to collect data from Zedboard (VC++ MFC is preferred.) 4. Installation instructions. 5. Test procedure. I will buy all the hardware. If any boards are needed, please let me know. I will buy them beforehand.
