Development board for Xilinx Zynq SoC
14 June 2017
Computer/Embedded Technology
Avnet recently introduced the compact and cost-effective MiniZe Zynq SoC development platform, providing an entry-level development and demonstration platform for single-core Xilinx Zynq-7000 ‘all programmable’ SoC devices. The board supports cloud connectivity and industrial IoT applications, such as motor control and embedded vision.
Showcasing the power of the Zynq-7000S SoC device family, which features a single-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor paired with 28 nm Artix-7 based programmable logic, MiniZed is small enough to fit into a shirt pocket and features onboard connectivity through USB, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Peripherals can be plugged into dual Pmod-compatible connectors, the Arduino-compatible shield interface or the USB 2.0 host interface. User LEDs, a button and a switch allow for a physical board interface, while JTAG circuitry is incorporated onto the base board.
Tutorials, available for download at http://minized.org, use the onboard microphone as an example input to demonstrate how to easily implement filters and FFTs in the fabric. The onboard eMMC (8 GB) provides convenient storage for the OS, files and logs.
