FAQ

What is the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q used for?

The XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q is a production-ready vision AI starter kit built around the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC. It enables rapid prototyping and deployment of edge AI applications such as object detection, facial recognition, and industrial inspection. The XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q includes pre-integrated software stacks including Vitis AI and PetaLinux to accelerate time-to-deployment.

Does the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q include FPGA fabric?

Yes, the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q is based on the XCZU3EG-1SBVA484 MPSoC, which contains 260K logic cells of programmable logic fabric. This allows custom hardware acceleration of AI inference kernels, image preprocessing pipelines, and real-time control logic alongside the ARM processors. The XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q exposes this capability through Vivado and Vitis toolflows.

What camera interfaces does the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q support?

The XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q supports two 4-lane MIPI CSI-2 receivers, enabling simultaneous connection of up to two high-resolution image sensors. It also provides HDMI 2.0 input and output for video capture and display. These interfaces are fully supported in the out-of-box PetaLinux BSP and Vitis AI examples bundled with the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q.

Is the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q FCC/CE certified?

Yes, the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q carrier board is pre-certified for FCC Part 15 Class B and CE EMC/LVD compliance. This certification covers conducted and radiated emissions, immunity, and safety - reducing regulatory burden for end-product integration. Certification documentation is provided with the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q shipment.

Can the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q run Linux and AI frameworks?

Yes, the XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q ships with a pre-built PetaLinux image supporting full Linux kernel 5.4+, device tree overlays, and user-space drivers for all peripherals. It natively supports Vitis AI 2.5+ for quantized model deployment (ResNet-50, YOLOv3, etc.) and includes optimized DPU (Deep Learning Processing Unit) drivers. The XAAU15P-1SBVB484Q enables end-to-end AI workflow from model training to hardware-accelerated inference.
