Digilent ZYBO Reference Manual

ZYBO™ FPGA Board Reference Manual
Revised April 11, 2016
This manual applies to the ZYBO rev. B
Overview
The ZYBO (ZYnq BOard) is a feature-rich, ready-to-use, entry-level embedded software and digital circuit
development platform built around the smallest member of the Xilinx Zynq-7000 family, the Z-7010. The Z-7010 is
based on the Xilinx All Programmable System-on-Chip (AP SoC) architecture, which tightly integrates a dual-core
ARM Cortex-A9 processor with Xilinx 7-series Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) logic. When coupled with the
rich set of multimedia and connectivity peripherals available on the ZYBO, the Zynq Z-7010 can host a whole
system design. The on-board memories, video and audio I/O, dual-role USB, Ethernet, and SD slot will have your
design up-and-ready with no additional hardware needed. Additionally, six Pmod ports are available to put any
design on an easy growth path.
The Zynq 7010 AP SoC offers the following features:

650Mhz dual-core Cortex-A9 processor

DDR3 memory controller with 8 DMA channels

High-bandwidth peripheral controllers: 1G Ethernet, USB 2.0, SDIO

Low-bandwidth peripheral controller: SPI, UART, CAN, I

Reprogrammable logic equivalent to Artix-7 FPGA
o
4,400 logic slices, each with four 6-input LUTs and 8 flip-flops
o
240 KB of fast block RAM
o
Two clock management tiles, each with a phase-locked loop (PLL) and mixed-mode clock
manager (MMCM)
o
80 DSP slices
o
Internal clock speeds exceeding 450MHz
o
On-chip analog-to-digital converter (XADC)
