#### Fix
Purchased Nexys A7-100 board after the
[Nexys4 board broke](https://wfjm.github.io/blogs/w11/2019-07-27-nexys4-obituary.html),
tested, and fixed one silly mistake. Closed with commit
The Nexys4 _(classic, with 16 MByte PSRAM)_ board, on which most of the recent
w11 was done, broke in late July 2019
(see [blog](https://wfjm.github.io/blogs/w11/2019-07-27-nexys4-obituary.html))
and a Nexys A7 was ordered as replacement.
Basic tests with the test designs
[sys_tst_serloop2](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/tst_serloop/nexys4d/sys_tst_serloop2_n4d.vhd) and
[sys_tst_rlink_n4d](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/tst_rlink/nexys4d/sys_tst_rlink_n4d.vhd)
and the BRAM-only w11 design
[sys_w11a_br_n4d](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/w11a/nexys4d_bram/sys_w11a_br_n4d.vhd) worked fine.
But all tests involving the DDR2 memory interface failed. The culprit was
quickly found, it was a mistake in the MIG configuration
[mig_a.prj](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/bplib/nexys4d/mig_a.prj),
the polarity of the `SYS_RST` signal was `ACTIVE LOW` instead of `ACTIVE HIGH`.
After fixing this, the test designs
[sys_tst_mig_n4d](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/tst_mig/nexys4d/sys_tst_mig_n4d.vhd) and
[sys_tst_sram_n4d](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/tst_sram/nexys4d/sys_tst_sram_n4d.vhd)
as well as the w11 implementation
[sys_w11a_n4d](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/blob/master/rtl/sys_gen/w11a/nexys4d/sys_w11a_n4d.vhd) worked right away.
The [tst_sram](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/tree/master/rtl/sys_gen/tst_sram)
designs show nicely that the DDR2 on the Nexys A7 board is slightly slower
than the DDR3 on the Arty A7 board

## Notes on w11 systems: w11a for Arty A7-35
- [Basics](#user-content-basics)
- [Usage](#user-content-usage)
- [Status & History](#user-content-status)
### <a id="basics">Basics</a>
The [sys_w11a_arty](sys_w11a_arty.vhd) system is a
[w11a](../../../w11a) implementation for the Digilent
[Arty A7-35](https://wfjm.github.io/home/w11/inst/boards.html#digi_arty) board
with DDR3 SDRAM support via a Vivado MIG core.
For complete configuration, see [sys_conf.vhd](sys_conf.vhd).
The most important features are:
| Property | Value |
| -------- | ----- |
| CPU options | FPP: no; Cache: 32 kB |
| Memory | 3840 kB from DDR3 SDRAM via [miglib_arty](../../../bplib/arty/miglib_arty.vhd) |
| Devices | DL11:2; DZ11, PC11, LP11, DEUNA, RK11, RL11, RHRP, TM11, IIST, KW11P, M9312: yes |
| Diagnostics | rbmon: yes; ibmon: yes; dmpcnt: yes; dmhbpt: 2; dmcmon: yes |
| Rlink | 12 Mbps via FT2232HQ based serial link |
An alternative design that uses only BRAM is available as
[sys_w11a_br_arty](../arty_bram).
### <a id="usage">Usage</a>
The board has only 4 LEDs plus 4 RGB-LEDS and offers only a compactified
console light emulation.
The memory size of 3840 kB allows starting all [oskits](../../../../tools/oskit).
For complete instructions on how to run operating system images,
[see w11a_os_guide](../../../../doc/w11a_os_guide.md).
The default setup is:
```
SWI = 0110 (gives console light emulation...)

```
### <a id="status">Status & History</a>
The Arty A7-35 board is one of the main w11 development platforms.
The sys_w11a_arty design is often FPGA tested with
[ostest](../../../../tools/bin/ostest) against all

| Rlink | 12 Mbps via FT2232HQ based serial link |
A design with full SDRAM memory support is available as
[sys_w11a_artys7](../artys7).
### <a id="usage">Usage</a>
The board has only 4 LEDs plus 2 RGB-LEDS and offers only a very rudimentary
console light emulation.
The memory size of 256 kB allows starting a few
[oskits](../../../../tools/oskit).
u5ed works fine. XXDP, RT11 and RSX-11M should work. 211bsd will not boot,
neither most RSX-11M+ systems.
For complete instructions on how to run operating system images,
[see w11a_os_guide](../../../../doc/w11a_os_guide.md).
The default setup is:
```
SWI = 0110 (gives console light emulation...)
ti_w11 -tuD,12M,break,xon @<oskit-name>_boot.tcl
```
### <a id="status">Status & History</a>
The author doesn't have an Arty S7 board and doesn't plan to buy one.
The design was made to study differences between Artix-7 and Spartan-7.
The design is [only simulation tested](https://github.com/wfjm/w11/issues/17).

## Notes on w11 systems: w11a for Basys 3
- [Basics](#user-content-basics)
- [Usage](#user-content-usage)
- [Status & History](#user-content-status)
### <a id="basics">Basics</a>
The [sys_w11a_b3](sys_w11a_b3.vhd) system is a
[w11a](../../../w11a) implementation for the Digilent
[Basys 3](https://wfjm.github.io/home/w11/inst/boards.html#digi_basys3)
board. The w11 memory is based on BRAMs only because the board doesn't
feature any memory outside the FPGA.
For complete configuration, see [sys_conf.vhd](sys_conf.vhd).
The most important features are:
| Property | Value |
| -------- | ----- |
| CPU options | FPP: no; Cache: 8 kB |
| Memory | 176 kB from BRAMs via [pdp11_bram_memctl](../../../w11a/pdp11_bram_memctl.vhd) |
| Devices | DL11:2; DZ11, PC11, LP11, DEUNA, RK11, RL11, RHRP, TM11, IIST, KW11P, M9312: yes |
| Diagnostics | rbmon: **no**; ibmon: **no**; dmpcnt: yes; dmhbpt: 2; dmcmon: **no** |
| Rlink | 12 Mbps via FT2232HQ based serial link |
### <a id="usage">Usage</a>
The board has 16 LEDs and allows a nice console light emulation.
The memory size of 176 kB allows starting a few
[oskits](../../../../tools/oskit).
u5ed works fine. XXDP, RT11 and RSX-11M should work. 211bsd will not boot,
neither most RSX-11M+ systems.
For complete instructions on how to run operating system images,
[see w11a_os_guide](../../../../doc/w11a_os_guide.md).
The default setup is:
```
SWI = 00000000 00101000 (gives console light display on LEDS)
ti_w11 -tuD,12M,break,xon @<oskit-name>_boot.tcl
```
### <a id="status">Status & History</a>
The Basys 3 board is one of the w11 development platforms.
The sys_w11a_b3 design is regularly FPGA tested with
[ostest](../../../../tools/bin/ostest) against the
[oskits](../../../../tools/oskit) running with 176 kB memory.

### <a id="basics">Basics</a>
The [sys_w11a_n2](sys_w11a_n2.vhd) system is a
[w11a](../../../w11a) implementation for the Digilent
[Nexys 2](https://wfjm.github.io/home/w11/inst/boards.html#digi_nexys2)
board.
For complete configuration, see [sys_conf.vhd](sys_conf.vhd).
The most important features are:
| Property | Value |
| -------- | ----- |
| CPU options | FPP: no; Cache: 8 kB |
| Memory | 3840 kB from PSRAM via [nx_cram_memctl_as](../../../bplib/nxcramlib/nx_cram_memctl_as.vhd) |

| Diagnostics | rbmon: yes; ibmon: yes; dmpcnt: yes; dmhbpt: 2; dmcmon: yes |
| Rlink | USB 2 speed over Cypress FX2 |
### <a id="usage">Usage</a>
The board has 8 LEDs and offers only a compactified console light emulation.
The memory size of 3840 kB allows starting all [oskits](../../../../tools/oskit).
For complete instructions on how to run operating system images,
[see w11a_os_guide](../../../../doc/w11a_os_guide.md).
The default setup is:
```
SWI = 00101100
ti_w11 -u @<oskit-name>_boot.tcl
```
### <a id="status">Status & History</a>
The Nexys 2 board was, along with the Nexys 3 board, the main w11
development platforms until the Nexys 4 board arrived and development
moved from ISE to Vivado.
Together with the Nexys 3 board, it still has the best I/O performance
thanks to the USB 2 speed and low-latency rlink connection.
The sys_w11a_n2 design is occasionally FPGA tested with
[ostest](../../../../tools/bin/ostest) against all
[oskits](../../../../tools/oskit).

### <a id="status">Status & History</a>
The S3BOARD was the first w11 development platform. All inital w11
developments were done with this board. In 2011, the developemt switched
to the Nexys 2 board, as this board offered full 4 MB memory, and
more importantly, a high speed rlink connection.
The S3BOARD is still available, but is no longer actively used.
The design is retained for historical and nostalgic reasons.
