Xilinx All Programmable FPGA and SoC-based solutions and platforms meet the critical timing and performance requirements posed by today’s complex control algorithms such as Field Oriented Control (FOC). Unlike MCUs and ASSPs that traditional handle only simple motor control and low clock speeds processed in software, Xilinx 28nm FPGAs and Zynq™-7000 All Programmable SoCs provide superior parallel-processing power, real-time performance, fast computational speeds, and connectivity versatility. Additionally, Xilinx devices lower costs with greater programmable systems integration, reduce risk and design cycles with on-the-fly programmability, and shorten latencies with high-performance digital signal processing (DSP) that can tackle compute-intensive functions such as PID Controller, Clark/Park transforms, and Space Vector PWM.

Featuring dual-core ARM® Cortex™-A9 MPCore application-class processors, Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoCs provide a single-chip motor control platform—integrating key functions and components such as complex motion algorithms, modulation schemes, motor tuning, industrial Ethernet, multi-motor control, legacy busses, ADC for sensor input, and system management.
As a comprehensive Programmable Logic Controller, Zynq-7000 AP SoCs can host RTOS, communications stack and digital IO functions in a single device.
