PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avnet,
Inc. (NYSE: AVT),
a leading global technology distributor, today released the UltraZed-EG™
Starter Kit, which provides a complete system for prototyping and
evaluating systems based on the Xilinx® Zynq®
UltraScale+™ MPSoC and bundles the new UltraZed-EG System on
Module (SOM) and Carrier Card. The kit is available now to customers in
the Americas, EMEA, Asia and Japan and sells for $895.
The Avnet-designed UltraZed-EG SOM is a highly flexible, rugged SOM that
packages all the necessary functions for an embedded processing system,
including system memory, Ethernet, USB and configuration memory. The SOM
provides designers of high-performance systems, in markets including
industrial automation, smart energy, medical, digital signage and
security surveillance, with easy access to 180 user I/O pins, 26 PS MIO
pins and four high-speed PS GTR transceivers, as well as four PS GTR
reference clock inputs via three Micro Headers.
“The Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC delivers new levels of embedded SoC
scalability and flexibility that are essential in next-generation
applications, including wired and 5G wireless infrastructure, cloud
computing and the Industrial IOT,” said Nasser Poureh, director of
technology, technical marketing, Avnet Electronics Marketing. “With
Avnet’s off-the-shelf UltraZed-EG SOM, supported by the Avnet UltraZed
IO Carrier Card, customers can not only build high-performance systems
based on the Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device family with confidence, but
they will also be able to cut system bring-up and debug time by half,
while reducing overall system cost by 20 percent or more as compared to
standard chip-down designs.”
“The UltraZed-EG SOM, IO Carrier Card and Starter Kit are a true
representation of Avnet’s commitment to supporting their customers’
development needs with the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC device family,”
said Evan Leal, director of boards and kits product marketing at
Xilinx. “The SOM element of the starter kit is also an excellent
solution for helping users move more quickly from prototyping into
production.”
The UltraZed-EG SOM and UltraZed IO Carrier Card are priced at $599 and
$499 respectively, and are available for pre-order now. They will be in
stock in January.
