XCZU7EG-3FFVF1517E

Overview

The XCZU7EG-3FFVF1517E is an Enhanced Graphics (EG) variant of the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC from AMD/Xilinx, housed in a 1517-ball FCBGA package. It integrates a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 application processor running up to 1.5 GHz, dual-core ARM Cortex-R5F real-time processors at 600 MHz, and a Mali-400 MP2 GPU. The programmable logic section provides approximately 288,000 Adaptive Logic Modules (ALMs), 11 Mbit of embedded memory, and supports up to 488 I/O pins. Designed for industrial and communication applications, it features high-speed interfaces including PCIe Gen3 x4, 1 GbE/10 GbE, and USB 3.0.

• Communication infrastructure equipment with Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN)
• Visual processing and machine vision applications leveraging GPU acceleration
• Secure embedded systems utilizing ARM TrustZone and hardware key storage

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'I' or 'E' for temperature grade requirements, as the model provided lacks this critical identifier. Confirm availability through authorized AMD distributors, noting that lead times may vary based on production schedules. Ensure PCB design accounts for the FCBGA-1517 package thermal and mechanical constraints.

Selection Notes

Select this EG variant over EV models when enhanced graphics performance via the Mali-400 MP2 is required for user interfaces. Compare logic density against the XCZU7EV series if GPU resources are unnecessary. Validate that the 1517-pin package fits the target form factor and that the 1.5 GHz A53 clock speed meets processing demands.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC family, specifically the Enhanced Graphics (EG) subset. It sits between standard MPSoCs and RFSoCs, focusing on integrating powerful processing cores with significant programmable logic and dedicated graphics acceleration for complex embedded tasks.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other XCZU7EG variants with different pin counts or speed grades, such as XCZU7EG-2FFVC1156E. Cross-series migration to XCZU7EV requires software adaptation due to the absence of the integrated GPU.
