Advanced Embedded System Design Using Xilinx Zynq: How to Eliminate Software Bottlenecks with Accelerators

Have you ever experienced software bottlenecks? Xilinx's Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC represents a relatively new alternative in the embedded field that addresses these issues differently. This innovative device enables you to trade off between hardware and software not only throughout the design phase but even after the design has shipped. The Zynq All Programmable SoC features a unique architecture that combines dual ARM Cortex-A9 processor cores, programmable hardware, and programmable I/O on a single silicon die, leveraging familiar SoC-style design tools and methodologies through the Vivado Design Suite. The Vivado Design Suite provides multiple design entry points in C, C++, HDL, System C, MATLAB, and LabVIEW, enabling system designers and design engineers to enter the design flow at their comfort level. Additionally, it reduces the time and effort required to bring products to market by enabling rapid prototyping, trade-offs throughout the product lifecycle, and reuse of software and logic IP from existing designs. What participants will learn: 1. How to analyze designs and determine which software to accelerate. 2. How to develop and integrate hardware accelerators. 3. An overview of the Vivado Design Suite, which demonstrates a complete and step-by-step methodology for developing products using the Zynq platform. Target audience: This technical webinar is suitable for embedded systems designers, software engineers, hardware engineers, and technical project managers who are seeking ways to meet demanding design objectives quickly and efficiently while minimizing design risk.
