Key Documentation

Xilinx offers embedded processing solutions spanning high performance, low power, and very low cost. With Xilinx Vitis™ unified software platform, free and low cost IP cores and broad operating and ecosystem system support, developers can customize an embedded system to their specific product requirements and easily build product derivatives using the software, hardware and IO programmability.

Processing Solutions Benefits

  • Xilinx comprehensive suite of processing design tools cover the complete work flow from hardware design to software development.
  • Key operating systems such as Linux™, VxWorks™, Windows Embedded Compact, Android, FreeRTOS, and many others are supported by Xilinx products. 
  • Single-chip processing solutions that scale from 8-bit to 64-bit with custom logic functions, accelerators and peripherals
  • Xilinx library of AXI based pre-validated IP cores enables quick and easy design customization
  • From the MicroBlaze processor to the Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC with dynamic power management; engineers can leverage the Xilinx power efficient architecture for minimum power consumption.
  • With Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC, designers can use the most power efficient 64-bit ARMv8 processor coupled with a dedicated power management unit that allows unprecedented levels of dynamic control for powering down parts of the device.
  • Xilinx adoption of AMBA 4 AXI interconnect as a standard interface for its entire IP portfolio ensures that IP developed for one of Xilinx processor-based systems can be reused within other Xilinx processor-based systems or even as a standalone device.
  • Xilinx and its ecosystem partners for operating systems, middleware, development tools, design services, IP and boards & kits provide an array of tools for everything needed to accelerate system development, debug and deployment.
  • Xilinx also offers time saving tools like automated Board Support Package (BSP) generation, IP creation, advanced chip probes and simulators.
