Details
Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore processor. Up to 800 MHz maximum frequency that
supports symmetric and asymmetric multiprocessing
Interface peripherals—10/100/1000 Ethernet media access control (MAC), USB 2.0 On-
The-Go (OTG) controller, Quad SPI flash controller, NAND flash controller, and
SD/MMC/SDIO controller, UART, serial peripheral interface (SPI), I2C interfaces, and up to
86 GPIO interfaces
System peripherals—general-purpose and watchdog timers, direct memory access (DMA)
controller, FPGA configuration manager, and clock and reset managers
On-chip RAM and boot ROM
HPS–FPGA bridges—include the FPGA-to-HPS, HPS-to-FPGA, and lightweight HPS-to-
FPGA bridges that allow the FPGA fabric to master transactions to slaves in the HPS, and
vice versa
FPGA-to-HPS SDRAM controller subsystem—provides a configurable interface to the
multiport front end of the HPS SDRAM controller
ARM CoreSight™ JTAG debug, trace port, and on-chip trace storage
Three fractional PLLs
10GBASE-R
9.8304-Gbps CPRI
Enhanced ALM with four registers
Improved routing architecture to reduce congestion and improve compilation time
Natively supports three-signal processing precision ranging from 9 x 9, 18 x 19, or 27 x 27
in the same DSP block
64-bit accumulator and cascade for systolic finite impulse responses (FIRs)
Embedded internal coefficient memory
Pre-adder/subtractor improves efficiency
M10K, 10 Kbit with soft error correction code (ECC)
Memory logic array block (MLAB), 640-bit distributed LUTRAM—you can use up to 25% of
the LEs as MLAB memory
Hardened double data rate3 (DDR3) and DDR2 memory controllers
Integer mode and fractional mode
Precision clock synthesis, clock delay compensation, and zero delay buffering (ZDB)
625-MHz global clock network
Global, quadrant, and peripheral clock networks
Unused clock networks can be powered down to reduce dynamic power
