MA-XU3-2CG-1E-D10-R2

Overview

The Enclustra MA-XU3-2CG-1E-D10-R2 is a Mars XU3 System-on-Module based on the AMD Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC XCZU2CG-1SBVA484E. It features a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 processor running up to 1.33 GHz and a dual-core ARM Cortex-R5 processor up to 533 MHz. The module integrates 1GB DDR4 SDRAM, 64MB Quad SPI flash, and 16GB eMMC flash. Key interfaces include PCIe Gen2 x4, USB 3.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and USB 2.0 OTG. Operating in the commercial temperature range of 0°C to +85°C, it utilizes a 200-pin SO-DIMM form factor (67.6 x 30mm) for compact embedded integration.

• Software-defined radio and embedded vision systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific hardware revision suffix (-R2) against current production status, as revisions may involve changes to pull-up resistor values or voltage monitoring outputs. Confirm that the commercial temperature rating (0°C to +85°C) meets application requirements, noting that industrial variants exist within the same product family. Ensure baseboard designs utilize compatible DDR2 SO-DIMM sockets rated for the module's mechanical constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this model for commercial environment applications requiring 1GB DDR4 capacity. For industrial temperature ranges (-40°C to +85°C), consider the -I variant (e.g., MA-XU3-2EG-1I-D10). Higher logic density options are available in the -3EG series. Verify that the required I/O banks (HP/HDI) align with the specific pinout constraints documented in the Mars Master Pinout sheet, particularly regarding differential pair length matching.

Part Context

This module belongs to the Enclustra Mars XU3 SoC family, designed to reduce development effort for AMD Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC implementations. It provides a complete embedded processing system including power generation, clocking, and boot storage. The platform supports rapid prototyping through compatibility with Mars base boards and includes software support layers such as Yocto BSP and reference designs.

Replacement Considerations

For industrial temperature requirements, the MA-XU3-2EG-1I-D10-R2 offers similar specifications with an extended temperature range. For increased FPGA resources, the MA-XU3-3EG-2I-D11-R2 provides higher logic density and 2GB DDR4. Ensure any replacement maintains the SBVA484 package footprint and SO-DIMM mechanical interface.
