Eclypse Z7 SoC Development Board with SYZYGY-compatible Expansion

by: Digilent, Inc.

The Eclypse Z7 is Digilent's newest FPGA/SoC development board, specifically designed to enable the rapid prototyping and development of embedded measurement systems. Featuring high-speed Zmod ports for modular expansion, an AMD Zynq 7020 SoC plus software API from Digilent, the Eclypse Z7 is fast, flexible and shortens the time it takes for engineers and researchers to develop innovative and powerful new high-speed instrumentation, control, and measurement systems for edge-computing, medical, and communications applications. Eclypse Z7 is the first host board of the Eclypse Platform.

Eclypse Platform Software:

The Eclypse Z7 is a component of the Eclypse Platform, which pairs Digilent’s open software API with Digilent’s novel Eclypse hardware. Petalinux is supported out of the box, and pre-built Linux images are accompanied by the API for bulk data transfer. This system allows users to plug in their Zmods of choice and get started prototyping new high-speed measurement, instrumentation and control systems without directly interfacing with the FPGA until desired. With this system, embedded Linux developers can leverage the power of FPGA without possessing hardware expertise. Currently, C and C++ are supported, with plans to add support for other programming languages in the future.
