Mercury+ XU7 & XU8: a great deal of bandwidth

Enclustra has started to develop two SoC modules optimized for high bandwidths and large volumes of data. The Mercury+ XU7 and Mercury+ XU8 are based on the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC and come equipped with 20 multi-gigabit transceivers, each with a data transfer rate of up to 15 Gbps.
In order to be able to efficiently buffer the high volumes of data, the PL has its own 32-bit memory and up to 4 GByte DDR4 SDRAM. When combined with up to 8 GByte DDR4 ECC SDRAM connected directly to the processing system, this allows for 29.8 GByte/sec memory bandwidth.
In addition to six ARM cores, the 74 × 54 mm modules feature a Mali 400MP2 GPU, 16 GByte eMMC flash memory, USB 3.0 and 236 user I/Os. The EV variants of the Mercury+ XU8 also come equipped with a H.264/H.265 video codec.
