The development board (model: AXKU15) based on the Xilinx FPGA Kintex Ultrascale+ development platform of
Alinx Electronic Technology has been officially released. To let users have a quick understanding of this
development platform, we have written this user manual.
This Kintex Ultrascale+ FPGA development platform adopts the mode of SOM module plus base board, which is
convenient for users to develop and utilize the SOM for the second time. The module uses the solution of Xilinx's
Kintex Ultrascale+ chip XCKU15PFFVE1517, which mounts five 1GB high-speed DDR4 SDRAM chips and two 512Mb
QSPI FLASH chips.
In the design of the base board, we have expanded rich peripheral interfaces for users, such as one PCIe3.0x16
interface, two FMC HPC interfaces, one Gigabit Ethernet interface, two QSFP28 optical fiber interfaces, two MIPIx4
input interfaces, one UART serial interface, one SD card interface and so on. It is a "professional" FPGA
development platform, which can meet the requirements of high-speed data exchange, video transmission
processing and industrial control. It is possible for high-speed data transmission and exchange, early verification,
and later application of data processing. It is believed that such a product is very suitable for students, engineers
and other groups engaged in FPGA development.
