Good morning I have a project where I need to embed microcontroller in a Xilinx ML401.This project consist a GSM which connect to a microcontroller(ATMEGA8535) and the microcontroller is eventually connected to Xilinx Virtex4 (ML401).It is actually road traffic light implementation for Emergency Vehicle Preemption System. My friend told me that I could do this by implementing a Microblaze microprocessor in the FPGA on the ML401 board and then connect the GSM modem serial line to the Microblaze instead of through the external microcontroller board. Then I could port the code from the external microcontroller to the Microblaze. My problems are :- 1)Where could I get the microblaze free tutorial? Is the tutorial in VHDL? 2)After attaining the microblaze code, how should I use it? For the ML401 , I am using software named Xilinx ISE 8.2i . Should I use this software to run the microblaze code? Your aid is really being appreciated. Thank you very much

I have implemented the MicroBlaze soft processor on a Xilinx ML403 board. You can read more in my blog: http://www.fpgafromscratch.com Sven
