Today I have received package with the MiniZed Zynq development board. Here are pictures of this board:
What is in the box:
- two layers of protection foam,
- USB2.0 to micro USB wire,
- three jumpers,
- safety guide and instruction,
- voucher for Xilinx Software Design Tool product,
- the MiniZed Zynq Development Board
The board is really small. On the top of board there are:
- expansion shield,
- two pmod expansion,
- USB to JTAG/Debug UART,
- USB 2.0 host interface,
- ST Micro microphone, accelerometer and temperature sensor,
- user pushbutton, swtich and two color LED,
- Xilinx Zynq XC7Z007S-1CLG225C
- Murata wireless module,
- Micron storage: 512 MB DDR3L, 128 Mb QSPI flash, 8 GB eMMC
On the bottom of board there are useful silicone pads.
Here is short video presentation of the MiniZed Zynq Development Board:
Zynq-7000 System-on-Chip contains Processing System (PS) and Programmable Logic (PL), connected via high throughput AXI. Thanks to this we could improve performance of whole system by using HW for complex part of algorithms and SW for control and update of elements of algorithms. Additionally by high integration we could achieve lower power usage compared multi-chip solutions. Additionally there is possible separate, independent and parallel development of each HW and SW part. There is improved security because there is no external snooping of PS to PL data transfers. There is secure boot and trusted zone.
