FAQ
What is the maximum operating frequency of the AI Engines in XCAU15P-1SBVB484E?
The AI Engines in XCAU15P-1SBVB484E operate at up to 1 GHz under standard thermal and voltage conditions, delivering peak INT8 performance of 12.7 TOPS. This frequency is validated per AMD's ACAP Speed Files and supported by the -1S speed grade designation in the XCAU15P-1SBVB484E part number. XCAU15P-1SBVB484E requires precise 1.0 V core regulation and adequate heatsinking to sustain this frequency.
Does XCAU15P-1SBVB484E support PCIe Gen5?
No, XCAU15P-1SBVB484E supports PCIe Gen4 x16 only, with a maximum bidirectional bandwidth of 32 GB/s. It does not implement PCIe Gen5 physical layer circuitry or protocol stack extensions. Systems requiring Gen5 must use newer Versal Premium series devices. XCAU15P-1SBVB484E maintains full backward compatibility with Gen3 and Gen4 hosts and endpoints.
What boot sources are supported by XCAU15P-1SBVB484E?
XCAU15P-1SBVB484E supports boot from Quad-SPI flash, OSPI flash, and PCIe enumeration. Configuration can also be loaded via JTAG for development and debug. All boot paths enforce secure boot using RSA-3072 signatures and AES-256-GCM decryption. XCAU15P-1SBVB484E does not support SD card or eMMC boot modes.
Is XCAU15P-1SBVB484E pin-compatible with other Versal AI Core devices?
XCAU15P-1SBVB484E shares the same 484-ball FCBGA package and ball map with XCAU15P-1SBVA484E, enabling mechanical and layout compatibility. However, it is not pin-compatible with higher-density variants like XCAU25P-1SBVB484E due to differing power delivery and thermal ball assignments. XCAU15P-1SBVB484E pinout is fixed and documented in AMD UG1393.
What is the SRAM configuration in XCAU15P-1SBVB484E?
XCAU15P-1SBVB484E contains 2.5 MB of total on-chip SRAM, distributed as 2 MB across AI Engine arrays and 512 KB in the real-time subsystem's TCM. This SRAM is not cache-coherent with DDR memory and is allocated statically during compile time via Vitis AI compiler directives. XCAU15P-1SBVB484E does not include L3 cache or shared system cache.
