Runner II) • Cost and size are premium • Power is key • Shortest time-in-market Xilinx Embedded Processing Solutions Embedded Systems and Applications Symposium – Istanbul Nov. 2008
What Do Embedded Customers Need ? Customer are saying that they… Solution Requirement Want to minimize inventory of off-theshelf (OTS) parts or inventory of different OTS parts for each project Inventory one type of silicon part (e. g. FPGA) that can be used across many projects Want processor/sub-system that’s a fit to the target application A processor with a custom mix of standard peripherals or mix of custom peripherals Want a solution that will not become obsolete Want to spend less time creating and debugging custom IP blocks Maintain same processor code for software re-use A wide range of pre-verified intellectual property with complete support infrastructure Want to use sw resources across Common software different projects development tools Xilinx Embedded Processing Solutions Embedded Systems and Applications Symposium – Istanbul Nov. 2008

Acceleration Beyond the Core • When clock frequency limits performance, Fabric Acceleration to the rescue • Application-specific hardware acceleration Power. P C – Enables dramatic improvements in performance – Substantially reduces cost and power • Power. PC – APU Interface • Micro. Blaze – FSL (Fast Simplex Links) Interface Xilinx Embedded Processing Solutions Embedded Systems and Applications Symposium – Istanbul Nov. 2008
A Higher Performance Bus Infrastructure • One interface for PPC and Micro. Blaze • One interface with common IPs • Fast and efficient Point-to-Point Connections for higher bandwidth Shared Bus for smaller area Xilinx Embedded Processing Solutions Embedded Systems and Applications Symposium – Istanbul Nov. 2008
Why Micro. Blaze v 7. 00 with MMU? • Strong Customer Demand for Embedded Linux solution for FPGAbased Processors – ~ 30 % of Xilinx Embedded Opportunities use Linux or u. Clinux • Micro. Blaze v 7 with MMU enables Full Embedded Linux 2. 6 solution – More Secure, Robust Software Development because of Memory Protection – Easier Software development because of Virtual Memory and Runtime Loadable applications – Easy to port large number of Linux applications, drivers and libraries • Lynux. Works Blue. Cat Linux (Micro. Blaze Edition) to support MMU – Support from other partners and Applications Xilinx Embedded Processing Solutions Embedded Systems and GPL Symposium – Istanbul Nov. 2008 patch to follow soon after
