Choose the xca100tcsg324-1 and click next and then finish.
 
Vivado will open, now you can make your own VHDL code or you can follow instruction further if you want to use the VGA controller. If you want to make your own code you can skip the IP part and go to generate bitstream to see how you should implement your code on the FPGA.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Adding IP’s, clk generator 25.2MHz and BRAM. Click IP Catalog and then
 
 
Search for Clocking Wizard and enter and this will pop up, clocking option should look like this, remember to change the Component name!

This should pop up, click generate
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Adding BRAM, search for bram and enter the Block Memory Generator and this should pop up. Remember component name
 
Port A Options, write width = 12bits, write depth = 307200=(480*640 pixels projected on screen), then click OK and then generate as before and wait until the synthesis is done.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
GENERATE BITSTREAM: click generate bitstream
 
 
 
If this pops up click yes
 
If this message shows, just click ok, it only means that you have pins activated in your Nexys4_Master.xdc that are not in use.
 
If later on want to change witch pins are active on your board you can configure this by entering the Nexys4_Master.xdc
 
When completed, choose  “Open Hardware Manager” and click ok
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
At this point connect your NEXY4 board . In the left menu under “program and debug”, click open target => open new target
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Open new Hardware target will pop up, click next two times and this will show. Choose JTAG clock freq. 30 000 000, click next and then finish
