XCZU6EG-2FFVB1156I Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between XCZU6EG and XCZU6CG?

The XCZU6EG (EG series) includes the ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU for graphics processing and has a quad-core Cortex-A53 running at 1.5GHz. The XCZU6CG (CG series) lacks the GPU and features a dual-core Cortex-A53 at 1.3GHz.

Is XCZU6EG-2FFVB1156I suitable for automotive applications?

While the “-I” industrial grade operates from -40°C to +100°C, for full automotive qualification, consider the “-Q” automotive grade variants that meet AEC-Q100 requirements.

What development board supports XCZU6EG?

The AMD ZCU102 evaluation kit is the primary development platform for XCZU6EG designs, providing access to all key interfaces and featuring production-equivalent silicon.

Can I migrate my design from Zynq-7000 to XCZU6EG?

Yes, with code modifications. The Zynq UltraScale+ uses 64-bit Cortex-A53 cores versus 32-bit Cortex-A9 in Zynq-7000. Vivado and Vitis tools support design migration with IP and software adaptation.

What is the typical power consumption?

Power consumption varies by clock speed, logic utilization, and I/O configuration. Use the Vivado Power Estimator tool for accurate estimates. Typical designs range from 5W to 25W depending on configuration.
