This course is structured to provide designers with an overview of the hard block capabilities for the Zynq® UltraScale+™ RFSoC family. Special emphasis is placed on the Data Converter and Soft-Decision FEC blocks. Power estimation is covered to help designers identify the power demands of the device in various operating modes. Since the Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC is both a high-speed and an analog and digital device, proper layout and PCB considerations are also covered.
* This course focuses on the Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC architecture. Check with your local Authorized Training Provider for the specifics of the in-class lab environment or other customizations. After completing this comprehensive training, you will have the necessary skills to:
- Describe in general the new Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC family
