Upgrade to Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC
If you need a more powerful SoC module or want to upgrade your current Xilinx Zynq solution, then have a look at the Mercury XU5.
Overview
The Mercury ZX5 system-on-chip (SoC) module combines Xilinx’s Zynq-7000-series All Programmable SoC device with fast DDR3 SDRAM, NAND flash, quad SPI flash, a Gigabit Ethernet PHY and an RTC and thus forms a complete and powerful embedded processing system.
The Mercury ZX5 SoC module reduces development effort, redesign risk and improves time-to-market for your embedded system.
Highlights
- Built around Xilinx’s Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC
- Combines the flexibility of a CPU system with the parallel processing power and real-time capabilities of an FPGA system
- Supports analog differential inputs
- Available in industrial temperature range
- Supports USB 2.0, CAN and Gigabit Ethernet
- Linux BSP and tool chain available
- Powerful and compact FPGA board
Benefits
- A complete and powerful embedded processing system in a compact form factor
- 1 GB of high-bandwidth DDR3L SDRAM
- PCIe Gen2 x4, Gigabit Ethernet and USB 2.0 interfaces, plus a high number of available LVDS pairs provide high-speed data I/O at low integration cost
- Fast boot times and plenty of non-volatile memory space due to the NAND flash
- Lowest power consumption due to the high-efficiency DC/DC converters
- Support for Linux and VxWorks operating systems
