2. Tutorial Walkthrough

This tutorial describes preparing the blinking_led design for debug with the Signal Tap Logic Analyzer.
This Application Note does not describe turning a non-PR design to a PR design. Refer to AN 825: Partially Reconfiguring a Design on Intel® Stratix® 10 GX FPGA Development Board for examples of the following tasks:
  • Creating a design partition
  • Allocating placement and routing regions for a PR partition
  • Defining personas
  • Creating project revisions
  • Preparing PR implementation revisions

Process Description

To tap signals in a PR design, you extend the debug fabric to the PR regions when creating the base revision, and then define debug components for the implementation revisions.

Tutorial Steps

This tutorial includes the following steps:
