Genesys ZU: Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC Development Board

The Digilent Genesys ZU is a standalone Zynq UltraScale+ EG/EV MPSoC development board, designed to provide an ideal entry point by combining cost-effectiveness with powerful multimedia and network connectivity interfaces. There are two variants of the Genesys ZU: 3EG and 5EV. These two variants are differentiated by the MPSoC chip version and some peripherals. As compared to the 3EG, with the 5EV you get faster DDR4, more FPGA fabric, a video codec, and GTH transceivers allowing HDMI Source, Sink and 10G SFP+. Both variants support multiple multimedia and network interfaces with an excellent mix of on-board peripherals, upgrade-friendly DDR4, Mini PCIe and microSD slots, along with multi-camera and high-speed expansion connectors which are designed to support a wide range of use-cases. The Genesys ZU is primarily targeted towards Linux-based applications that facilitate access to Wi-Fi, cellular radio (WWAN), SSD, USB SuperSpeed and 4K video. Two different specialized ports, including Pmod and high-speed SYZYGY-compliant expansion module ports for our new Zmods, enable flexible expansion and easy access to a wide ecosystem of add-on modules, perfect for silicon evaluation and rapid prototyping.
The Zynq UltraScale+ 3EG devices include specialized processing elements needed to excel in next-generation wired and 5G wireless infrastructure, cloud computing, AI, and Aerospace and Defense applications. 5EV devices are designed with high-definition video in mind, and are ideal for multimedia, automotive ADAS, surveillance, and other embedded vision applications.
The AMD Zynq UltraScale+ XCZU3EG and XCZU5EV are supported by Vivado Design Suite, including the free Vivado ML Standard Edition (formerly Vivado WebPACK™).
Guides and demos are available to help users get started quickly with the Genesys ZU. These can be found through the Support Materials tab.
