XCZU6EG-2FFVB1156I

Overview

The AMD XCZU6EG-2FFVB1156I is a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC EG device featuring an integrated FPGA fabric and processing system. It includes a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore, dual-core ARM Cortex-R5 MPCore, and an ARM Mali-400 MP2 GPU. The programmable logic offers approximately 397K LEs, 22 Mbit of embedded memory, and 16 high-speed transceivers. Operating at up to 1.5 GHz for the A53 cores, it supports DDR4/LPDDR4 interfaces and integrates peripherals such as PCIe Gen2, USB 3.1, and Gigabit Ethernet within a 1156-pin FCBGA package.

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix (e.g., -2) against design timing requirements. Confirm package availability and moisture sensitivity level handling procedures prior to assembly. Check for recent product change notifications regarding pinout or electrical characteristics.

Selection Notes

Select this model when moderate FPGA capacity (~397K LEs) and high-performance application processing are required in a compact form factor. Ensure the board design supports the necessary power delivery for the 1.5 GHz A53 cores and provides adequate cooling for the 35x35mm FCBGA package.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC EG series, designed for cost-sensitive embedded applications requiring both real-time control and complex processing. It shares the same 1156-pin footprint as other variants in the FFVB1156 family, facilitating potential platform scalability across different performance tiers.

Replacement Considerations

Direct pin-compatible substitutes within the same package include XCZU6EG-2FFVC1156I (different speed grade) or XCZU9EG-2FFVB1156I (higher logic density). Verify timing closure and resource utilization before swapping between speed grades.
