PYNQ-Z1: Python Productivity for Zynq-7000 ARM/FPGA SoC

The PYNQ-Z1 board is designed to be used with the PYNQ open-source framework that enables embedded programmers to program the onboard SoC with Python. It is designed around the AMD Zynq®-7000 SoC, which combines the programmable logic of an FPGA with a dual-core ARM Cortex™-A9 processor.
Hardware-wise, the PYNQ-Z1 is flexible and ready-to-use. It is similar in form factor and features to Digilent's Arty Z7, featuring popular Arduino™ headers, Pmod ports, onboard I/O, HDMI in/out, audio out, and USB and Ethernet connectivity. This makes the PYNQ-Z1 a versatile and easily customizable SoC development platform for applications such as computer vision, industrial control, IoT, encryption, and embedded computing acceleration.
What really sets the PYNQ-Z1 apart is the PYNQ open-source framework. (See the Software tab for more details on the PYNQ framework.) The board can be booted from a microSD card containing PYNQ-Z1 boot image. The PYNQ-Z1 image can be downloaded for free and copied to a microSD card. See the Support Materials for additional information. You can also purchase a microSD with the image pre-loaded here.
For designers who want to extend the base system by contributing new hardware libraries, AMD Vivado Design Suite WebPACK edition tools are available free of cost.

PYNQ-Z1 development board

The board does not include a power supply, USB cable, Ethernet cable, or microSD card as these are tools interchangeable between many other products. 

With the PYNQ-Z1 open-source framework, embedded developers and engineers can program the Zynq-7000 SoC using Python and test the code directly on the PYNQ-Z1. The programmable logic circuits are imported as hardware libraries and programmed through their APIs in essentially the same way that the software libraries are imported and programmed.
Additionally, the software running on the ARM Cortex-A9 processor will include:

Web server hosting the Jupyter Notebooks design environment
The IPython kernel and packages
Linux
Base hardware library and API for the FPGA
