VCS³ – Probably the smallest Single Board Computer based on an AMD Zynq MPSoC
Also available to view at the show will be our recently released VCS³, an ultra-compact, low-power, Vision, Control and Sensors Solution for Precision Robotics.
The VCS³ is a small Single-Board-Computer with an AMD© ZYNQ™ device with integrated ARM CPUs and FPGA fabric. Measuring just 30mm x 50mm, this tiny workhorse can be placed almost anywhere, opening up the benefits of FPGAs to many more applications.
The VCS³ utilizes an AMD UltraScale+ MPSoC coupled with high-speed LP-DDR4 memory to produce a highly compact evaluation platform. Together with four digital camera interfaces, a 9-axis IMU, and a CAN-Bus interface, this platform is ideally suited for autonomous machines, cameras or automation. Device booting can be from SPI ROMs or eMMC flash, with no bulky, fiddly or unreliable SD cards. Numerous onboard power rails are generated from a single external 5V supply, or via a USB3 Type-C interface.
