Dependencies and Requirements

Dependencies

The USRP FPGA build system requires a UNIX-like environment with the following dependencies

Requirements

What FPGA does my USRP have?

  • USRP N200: Spartan® 3A-DSP 1800
  • USRP N210: Spartan® 3A-DSP 3400
  • USRP E100: Spartan® 3A-DSP 1800
  • USRP E110: Spartan® 3A-DSP 3400

Build Instructions

  • Download and install Xilinx ISE 12.2
  • To add xtclsh to the PATH and to setup up the Xilinx build environment run
    • source <install_dir>/Xilinx/12.2/ISE_DS/settings64.sh (64-bit platform)
    • source <install_dir>/Xilinx/12.2/ISE_DS/settings32.sh (32-bit platform)
  • Navigate to usrp2/top/{project} where project is:
    • N2x0: For USRP N200 and USRP N210
    • E1x0: For USRP E100 and USRP E110
  • To build a binary configuration bitstream run make <target> where the target is specific to each product. To get a list of supported targets run make help.
  • The build output will be specific to the product and will be located in the usrp2/top/{project}/build directory. Run make help for more information.
