High-Level Synthesis allows us to take our C++ / C models and high-level Vitis libraries to accelerate the development our programmable logic solution. In this workshop, we will walk through several design examples while introducing key points of developing an HLS Solution.

​

​

Topics covered in this tutorial: 

• Create sources and test benches

• Debug applications when it does not go as expected

• How to control the interfaces presented to the Vivado design on the final IP block

• Understand the default optimisations made by synthesis

• How to identify bottlenecks in the design and select constraints to optimize the design and achieve the desired performance

• How to leverage the arbitrary precision capabilities of Vitis to implement mathematical algorithms

• How to leverage the wider world of Vitis HLS libraries so users no longer have create commonly used functions from scratch
