    1818This folder contains the bitstreams (.bit and .bin) for the WARPLab Reference Design that are compatible with WARP v3 hardware.
    1919=== EDK_Projects ===
    20 This folder contains EDK projects for various hardware configurations. Each of these projects are a combination of an XPS project along with Eclipse software projects that can be imported into an SDK workspace. These software projects are present in the 'SDK_Workspace' subfolder of every XPS project -- we recommend using this folder as the location of the SDK Workspace. These projects can then be imported "in place" and will not need to be copied.
     20This folder contains EDK projects for various hardware configurations. The WARPLab FPGA design is built with the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK) software. The hardware design is constructed and implemented in EDK Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS). The software design, running in the MicroBlaze processor, is built in the Xilinx SDK. Opening these EDK projects requires a copy of the [wiki:edk_user_repository WARP edk_user_repository] at the SVN revision in the table above.

     22If you want to use (but not modify) the reference FPGA design, you only need a bitstream and the reference M code. If you want to modify the MicroBlaze C code, you can download an EDK project in this folder, but only modify the SDK project contained therein. To modify the FPGA hardware design, you will need to modify the XPS project. The WARPLab FPGA design uses custom peripherals designed in Xilinx System Generator, including the warplab_buffers core. You will need MATLAB, Simulink and System Generator to modify these cores.

    30 The WARPLab FPGA design is built with the Xilinx Embedded Development Kit (EDK) software. The hardware design is constructed and implemented in EDK Xilinx Platform Studio (XPS). The software design, running in the MicroBlaze processor, is built in the Xilinx SDK. The XPS and SDK projects are available in the EDK project .zip files below.

    32 Opening these EDK projects requires a current copy of the [wiki:edk_user_repository WARP edk_user_repository].

     30This folder contains all of the supporting files needed for WARPLab to run on a host PC with MATLAB. When downloading a new Reference Design Release, users will need to run the [wiki:WARPLab7/Reference/Utility#wl_setup wl_setup.m] script in this folder.
