Hi Wan

Matlab scripts generate and modify an EDK project containing the HDL code
for the ADC. gen_xps_files.m (in xps_library directory) does most of the
work (look from line 246 or so) of copying a base EDK project (in xps_lib
directory) and then modifying it based on what your Simulink design
contains. There are different base EDK projects for each hardware platform.
The base EDK project contains the HDL relevant to the ADC (in
pcores/adc_interface_*) and the Matlab script modifes other files
(system.mhs, system.mss, data/system.ucf etc) to ensure the ADC related
infrastructure is included in the final EDK project. This is not a very
simple process and I am not sure where you want to jump in.

Regards
Andrew
