====== Cmod S7-25 Out-Of-Box Demo ======

{{reference:programmable-logic:cmod-s7:cmod_s7-inuse-600.png?600}}

----
===== Description =====

This project is a simple Vivado demo using the Cmod S7-25's LEDs, RGB LED, buttons, and USB-UART bridge, written in Verilog. When programmed onto a Cmod S7, the demo will cycle the board's RGB LED from Blue to Green to Red to Black. The other LEDs will light up in sequence.

To use the USB-UART bridge feature of this demo, the Cmod S7 must be connected to a serial terminal on the computer it is connected to over the MicroUSB cable. Whenever one of the two buttons is pressed, "Button # Pressed!" is sent to the computer using the USB-UART bridge.

===== Download and Usage Instructions =====

First and foremost, releases are only compatible with the version of the Xilinx tools specified in the release version number. In addition, releases are only compatible with the specified variant of the board. For example, a release tagged "20/DMA/2020.1" for the Zybo Z7 is only to be used with the -20 variant of the board and Xilinx tools of version 2020.1.

The latest release tag for this demo is highlighted in green, and release candidates (which may not be fully tested, and should be used at your own risk, are highlighted in yellow.

**Important:** //The setup instructions found in this section only pertain to the latest release.//

**Note:** //Releases for FPGA demos from before 2020.1 used a different git structure, and used a different release tag naming scheme.//
