XCZU5EV-1FBVB900E

Overview

The AMD XCZU5EV-1FBVB900E is a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC EV series device featuring an FPGA fabric with approximately 246K logic cells and a dual-core ARM Cortex-R5 processor. It includes a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore with CoreSight support and an ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU. The component operates at maximum clock frequencies of 500 MHz, 600 MHz, and 1.2 GHz for its respective cores. It utilizes a 900-ball FCBGA package (31x31 mm) and supports I/O voltages down to 850 mV. The device integrates 256 KB of RAM and offers connectivity via Ethernet, USB OTG, SPI, UART, and other standard interfaces.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix (-1) against design timing requirements. Confirm RoHS compliance status through official AMD documentation prior to procurement. Ensure supply chain channels are authorized to guarantee part authenticity and traceability for production lifecycles.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a balance of moderate FPGA resources and robust processing capabilities is required. The EV series targets cost-sensitive applications compared to higher-end EG or CG variants. Verify that the 900-ball FCBGA footprint fits the PCB layout constraints and thermal management strategy.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC EV family, designed for entry-level to mid-range embedded applications. It combines programmable logic with hardened ARM processors on a single die, enabling system-level integration for complex embedded designs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-to-pin replacements within the same package may include other XCZU5EV variants with different speed grades (e.g., -2). Cross-family upgrades such as XCZU7EV require significant schematic and layout modifications due to differing pin counts and resource allocations.
