With four dedicated curriculum paths, Hardent is addressing the specific Zynq-7000 EPP training needs of system architects, software developers, hardware developers and firmware developers.
With the constant critical need to build in a shorter time-to-market, but with a greater functionality differentiation, electronics developers need to deliver increasingly complex functions while facing exploding demand for signal-processing performance. They must balance performance, power, cost and flexibility without sacrificing results. While reducing costs through hardware and software design reuse across a common platform for multiple products, they must comply with continually changing industry standards, regulations and market needs.
“The Zynq training courses direct developers and architects on how to build better and faster processing systems with fewer chips,” said Reg Zatrepalek, FPGA Expert for Hardent. “We focus on showing them how to increase the system performance, and reduce both the BOM cost and the total required power.”
The Zynq-7000 EPP training redefines the possibilities for embedded systems, giving system and software architects and developers a flexible platform to launch their new solutions and traditional ASIC and ASSP users an alternative that aligns with today’s programmable imperative. The training classes demonstrate how an industry-standard ARM® processor-based system, combined with Xilinx 28nm programmable logic, is implemented in a single device. As the ARM processor boots first, prior to configuration of the programmable logic, a streamlined workflow would save time and effort and would allow software developers and hardware designers to start development simultaneously.
The Zynq courses are a better fit for various market applications, from smart surveillance, factory automation and driver assistance on the 7010/20 lower-end Zynq device, to video switching, broadcast cameras, military radio and medical imaging in the higher-end 7030/40 products. The following four separated curriculum paths are available to cater to different development function: system architects path, software developers path, hardware developers path and firmware developers path.
