1.4. Creating an Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Custom Platform

The following topics outline the tasks you must perform to create a Custom Platform for use with the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ .
  1. Designing the Board Hardware
    To design an accelerator board for use with the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Pro Edition, you must create all the board and system components, and the files that describe your hardware design to the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Offline Compiler.
  2. Creating the Board XML Files
    Your Custom Platform must include the XML files that describe your Custom Platform and each of your hardware system to the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Pro Edition.
  3. Creating the MMD Library
    Your Custom Platform requires an MMD layer necessary for communication with the accelerator board.
  4. Setting Up the FPGA Client Driver
    The FPGA Client Driver (FCD) allows the SDK to automatically find and load the Custom Platform libraries at host run time.
  5. Providing Intel FPGA SDK for OpenCL Utilities Support
    Each Custom Platform you develop for use with the Intel® FPGA SDK for OpenCL™ Pro Edition must support a set of SDK utilities. These utilities enable users to manage the accelerator board through the SDK.
  6. Testing the Hardware Design
    After you create the software utilities and the MMD layer, and your hardware design achieves timing closure, test the design.
