rust-on-step-mxo2-lpc

rust-hdl and yosys examples on STEP-MXO2-LPC.

Based on support package rust-hdl-bsp-step-mxo2-lpc.

The support package requires these open FPGA synthesis and P&R tools:

• yosys
• nextpnr-machxo2
• JEDEC bitstream patched ecppack

This project includes 4 examples:

• blinky: official example from rust-hdl, blinking 8 onboard LEDs
• breathing: PWMing onboard LED
• segment: showing symbols at onboard 7-segment display
• switch: controlling onboard LEDs via DIP switch

Start

• If you have had those tools installed, simply run

  cargo run

  It will generate blinky.jed and segment.jed bitstreams.

• For convenience, I also packed a Docker image step-mxo2-lpc-toolchains for all of the tools above. This project also includes a script run_docker.sh, which will run the binary in that container, and bring back all artifacts.

  cargo build
  # if you want to build it in Docker
  ./run_docker.sh

Programming

STEP-MXO2-LPC only supports programming via an emulated flash drive.
