Zynq-7000

The XC7Z020 (part of the AMD/Xilinx Zynq-7000 family) is a highly popular System-on-Chip (SoC) that combines a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 processor with Artix-7 based programmable logic (FPGA). It is widely used in embedded vision, motor control, and software-defined radio.

Key Technical Specifications

  • Processing System (PS): Dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 MPCore up to 667 MHz or 866 MHz (depending on speed grade).
  • Programmable Logic (PL): 85,000 logic cells, 5.3 Mb block RAM, and 220 DSP slices.
  • Interfaces: Supports DDR3, DDR2, LPDDR2 memory, and standard peripherals (Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, SD/eMMC, SPI, I2C).
  • Packages Available: CLG400 (smaller footprint) and CLG484 (more I/O pins).

Common Development Boards

If you are prototyping or building projects, several ready-to-use platforms feature the XC7Z020:

  • Pynq-Z2: Highly popular for embedded Python and machine learning applications.
  • Arty Z7: Excellent for makers and hobbyists.
  • Z-turn Lite: A compact, low-cost board ideal for industrial evaluations.
  • ALINX AX7020 / AX7021: Feature-rich boards with multiple video and network interfaces.
