Sandwich-style dev board runs Linux on Zynq-7000

The MYD-C7Z010/20 development board is built around the MYC-C7Z010/20 CPU Module which is a compact Linux-ready ZYNQ-based SOM (System on Module). The MYC-C7Z010/20 combines the Xilinx XC7Z010-1CLG400C or XC7Z020-1CLG400C SoC device, 1GB DDR3 SDRAM, 4GB eMMC, 32MB quad SPI Flash, a Gigabit Ethernet PHY, a USB PHY and external watchdog. 

It is connected to the MYD-C7Z010/20 base board through two 0.8mm pitch 140-pin board-to-board connectors.

The MYD-C7Z010/20 development board takes full features of the Zynq-7010 and Zynq-7020 SoCs’ powerful dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processing system and Xilinx 7-series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) logic unit to create a rich set of peripherals to the base board through headers and connectors including one RS232 serial port, four USB Host ports, one Gigabit Ethernet port, CAN, HDMI, LCD/Touch screen, TF card slot, RTC, one XADC header to allow you take advantage of Xilinx XADC; it has three PMoD headers to meet your I/O needs with PMoDs (only for 7020); it also has a low-pin count FMC connector to allow various FMC cards for custom I/O options. User can integrate a MYC-C7Z010 or a MYC-C7Z020 SOM on the same base board, thus making two variants of Zynq evaluation boards.

MYD-C7Z010/20 Development Board

The MYD-C7Z010/20 development board is delivered with necessary cable accessories and MYIR offers optional 4.3-inch and 7-inch LCD Module. The board is preloaded with Linux. It is a high-performance and low-cost development platform for evaluation and prototype based on Xilinx Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC family.

Hardware Features

The Zynq™-7000 family of devices combines the software programmability of a Processor with the hardware programmability of an FPGA, resulting in unrivaled levels of system performance, flexibility, scalability while providing system benefits in terms of power reduction, lower cost with fast time to market. Unlike traditional SoC processing solutions, the flexible programmable logic of the Zynq-7000 devices enables optimization and differentiation, allowing designers to add peripherals and accelerators to adapt to a broad base of applications.

The Zynq-7000 AP SoC leverages the 28nm scalable optimized programmable logic used in Xilinx’s 7 series FPGAs. Each device is designed to meet unique requirements across many use cases and applications. The Z-7010, Z-7015, and Z-7020 leverage the Artix®-7 FPGA programmable logic and offer lower power and lower cost for high-volume applications. The Z-7030, Z-7035, Z-7045, and Z-7100 are based on the Kintex®-7 FPGA programmable logic for higher-end applications that require higher performance and high I/O throughput.
