XCZU7EV-L2FBVB900E

Overview

The XCZU7EV-L2FBVB900E is a Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC from AMD/Xilinx, integrating an ARM Cortex-A53 application processor, dual-core Cortex-R5 real-time processor, and Mali-400 MP2 GPU with programmable logic. It features 504,000 logic elements (28,800 ALMs) and 11 Mbit of embedded memory. The device operates at maximum clock frequencies of 600 MHz for R5, 667 MHz for the GPU, and 1.5 GHz for A53 cores. It utilizes a 900-ball FCBGA package and supports a VCCINT voltage of 850 mV.

Feature Summary

• Heterogeneous architecture combining quad-core ARM Cortex-A53, dual-core ARM Cortex-R5F, and Mali-400 MP2 GPU with 504K logic elements
• Extended temperature range (-40°C to +100°C) enabled by the 'L' speed grade suffix
• Low-power operation capability with VCCINT support down to 0.72V for reduced static power consumption
• Integrated DDR4/LPDDR4 controller supporting high-bandwidth memory interfaces

Applications

• Industrial automation and control systems requiring extended temperature stability
• Automotive infotainment and advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS)
• Medical imaging equipment and diagnostic devices
• Telecommunications infrastructure and baseband processing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific speed grade suffix 'L2' against design requirements, as it denotes extended temperature range and optimized low-power characteristics compared to standard industrial parts. Confirm package availability in the 900-FCBGA format and ensure supply chain sources provide genuine AMD components with appropriate traceability documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this model when extended operating temperatures (-40°C to +100°C) are required alongside low-power performance. The L2 speed grade offers lower static power than standard -2I variants when operated at VCCINT = 0.72V. Ensure the system design accommodates the 900-ball FCBGA footprint and thermal management needs for the 1.5 GHz A53 cores.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC EV (Enhanced Video) series, which includes enhanced video processing capabilities compared to the EG series. The XCZU7 variant provides a mid-range balance of programmable logic resources and processing power within the UltraScale+ portfolio.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements include other XCZU7EV speed grades such as XCZU7EV-1FBVB900E or XCZU7EV-2FBVB900E, noting that these operate at standard industrial temperatures (0°C to +100°C). Cross-series upgrades like XCZU9EV offer more logic resources but require pinout and software compatibility verification.
