Classroom - Designing with Versal AI Engine 3: Kernel Programming and Optimization

This course covers the advanced features of the AMD Versal™ adaptive SoC AI Engine, including kernel function development, optimizing an AI Engine kernel program, using AI Engine APIs and filter intrinsics, and debugging an application in the Vitis™ Unified IDE.

The emphasis of this course is on:
  • Reviewing the features of the Versal device AI Engine architecture
  • Optimizing AI Engine kernels using compiler directives, programming style, and efficient movement of data
  • Describing C++ kernel template functionality 
  • Identifying the different types of kernel instance states 
  • Programming FIR filters using AI Engine APIs 
  • Debugging applications using the Vitis Unified IDE
