PL = FPGA ?

hello,

i have a little question,

can we say that we have an FPGA on ZedBoard ?

we know that ZedBoard based on Xilinx chip, which also based on 2 ARM Cortex A9 , and a PL

but can we use the PL as an FPGA ?

thank you

PL stands for Programmable Logic, which is FPGA. In a Zynq device the PS or processing system (cortex a9) is connected to the programmable logic using the AXI busses. That means peripherals implemented in PL can communicate easily with software running on the CPU.

disadvantages ? depends on the application you want to use it for.
