Posted on: Nov 7, 2018

Xilinx Zynq-7000 Programmable system-on-chip (SoC) is now qualified for Amazon FreeRTOS. You can take advantage of Amazon FreeRTOS features and benefits using the Avnet MicroZed Industrial IoT Bundle, a development board powered by Xilinx.

The Avnet MicroZed Industrial IoT Bundle contains the Xilinx Zynq-7000 Programmable SoC, which includes a dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 processor, 1GB of DDR3 memory, 10/100/1000 Ethernet, and an integrated FPGA fabric. This bundle enables you to easily and securely connect your Zynq-7000-based devices to AWS cloud services like AWS IoT Core or to edge devices running AWS Greengrass.

This kit provides a heterogeneous and adaptable Industrial IoT platform capable of executing mixed-criticality applications such as high-performance motor control in the FPGA and IoT connectivity via the processing subsystem powered by Amazon FreeRTOS.

You can get started by downloading Amazon FreeRTOS source code from GitHub or from the Amazon FreeRTOS console.
