Comparison of On-chip Communications in Zynq-7000 All Programmable Systems-on-Chip

摘要

This letter analyses and compares on-chip interfaces for hardware/software communications in the Zynq-7000 all programmable systems-on-chip. Many experiments were carried out to evaluate the exchange of data between the processing system and the programmable logic through general-purpose and high-performance ports; the experiments were conducted for both standalone and Linux applications. The results enable the most effective interfaces for specific types of data to be identified and the effectiveness of Zynq-based hardware accelerators to be assessed.
