Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ multiprocessor system-on-chips

Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ multiprocessor system-on-chips (MPSoCs) combine a high-performance Arm-based multicore, multiprocessing system with ASIC-class programmable logic. The devices deliver high scalability and can offload critical applications, such as graphics and video pipelining, to dedicated processing blocks. They also include a full complement of integrated peripherals and connectivity cores suitable for next-generation applications such as 5G wireless, automotive ADAS and Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

The MPSoCs comprise three distinct variants (CG, EG and EV), each of which includes two or four Arm Cortex-A53 cores and two Arm Cortex-R5 real-time processing units. The dual-core CG devices are optimal for industrial motor control and sensor fusion.

Both the EG series and EV series devices feature four Cortex-A53 cores, as well as an Arm Mali-400 graphics processing unit. The EV series also includes a video codec unit that supports H.265 High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) and H.264 Advanced Video Coding (AVC) standards, making them suitable for multimedia, ADAS and surveillance applications.
