No-OS (no operating system) drivers offer high-level APIs for interfacing with digital devices. They are platform-independent, meaning they support applications with systems that don’t require an OS. No-OS leverages a platform driver layer to allow easy reuse across different hardware and software platforms without adjusting for low-level interface details.

This straightforward tutorial will guide you through integrating No-OS with your default hardware descriptive language (HDL) project. Ultimately, you will have the bones of a comprehensive FPGA-based system using the ADRV9002. The work is demonstrated on a Windows-based operating system, which we configured in the previous post of this series.
Here, we will learn how to build the Xilinx default BareMetal application for the ZCU102 hardware/software design platform. Then, we'll see how to integrate it with the default HDL for ADRV9002, specifically. Before starting, make sure you have the following:
1. Install Git:
Download and install Git from https://git-scm.com/download/win.
2. Prepare Build Environment:
Create a directory where you want to build the No-OS project.
3. Export SDK Paths:
export PATH=/c/Xilinx/Vitis/2021.1/bin:/c/Xilinx/Vitis/2021.1/gnu/aarch32/nt/gcc-arm-none-eabi/bin:$PATH
source /c/Xilinx/Vitis/2021.1/settings64.sh
4. Clone No-OS Repository:
git clone --recursive -b 2021_R2 https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/no-OS.git
5. Copy System HDF File:
Copy the system_top.xsa file from the HDL project directory to the No-OS project directory.
cd /projects/adrv9001/zcu102
6. Build No-OS Project:
make
make run
7. Launch SDK:
Open Vitis manually and browse to the project directory. Verify the built project in Vitis.
1. Copy HDL Project: Copy your default HDL project to a directory where you want to create an integrated project.
2. Run Default No-OS Project: Open Xilinx Vitis and run your default No-OS project. Verify that the project is working correctly.
3. Export Files from Vitis: Export the following files from your Vitis project to the copied HDL directory:
4. Open HDL Project in Vivado: Run Xilinx Vivado and open your copied HDL project. Then, export and launch VITIS.
5. Create a Project in VITIS: Create a new empty project in VITIS.
6. Import Files: Import the three files exported in Step 3 into the new VITIS project.
7. Add Directories: Add the required directories for the imported files.
8. Launch Project: Connect your ZCU102 to the PC and launch the project.

Now that you’ve successfully integrated No-OS with your default HDL project, you can begin developing your FPGA-based system around the ADRV9002. The next post will demonstrate “How to Run Default Kuiper Linux on ZCU102.”
