Overview

Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoCs are FPGA-based SoCs equipped with two essential parts: a processing system (ARM-based processor), and a programmable logic (FPGA-based). There are other hardware cores included, such as:

• Video Encoder/Decoder Unit
• Neural Network Accelerators
• RF and other Communication Fabrics
• Graphics Processing Unit (GPUs)

Software Development Flow

The software development on Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoCs can be performed in

• Baremetal: executing the binaries without an OS
• FreeRTOS: executing critical applications for determinism
• Linux: Linux-based images developed with Petalinux, a Yocto-based project.

Hardware Development Flows

Thanks to the Programmable Logic (PL), it is possible to perform FPGA development on the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoCs. The recommended tools for this workflow are:

• Xilinx Vivado: implementation and integration of RTL designs
• Xilinx Vivado/Vitis HLS: implementation of RTL using C++ for High-Level Synthesis
• Xilinx Vitis: implementation of software binaries (bitstreams, device-tree overlays, executables, and drivers)
