NEW | Advanced Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC for the Software Designer
This course explains the features of the CPUs in the processing system to effectively design embedded software for operating systems and complex applications.
In systems deploying multiple independent processors in operation, the designer must be aware of specific system design approaches to reach a mature design. E.g., the inter-processor communication requires a custom shared memory management and a protection of related peripherals. Schemes to achieve symmetric and asymmetric multi-processing OS operations are discussed, reviewing Linux or hypervisor architecture on application processor cores, FreeRTOS deployment especially on the real-time processing unit, and the respective software support. For generating a Linux OS, the various components need to be fetched, configured and built, also adopting the contributions of the customizable programmable hardware (PL). We will contrast the basic generation schemes, open source Linux kernel and rootfs vs. the build using Yocto and/or PetaLinux.
To productize these insights, the mechanisms of principal boot configurations are shown and elaborated. The boot process can be customized with focus on various non-volatile memories, multiple boot content, and allowing for non-secure or secure boot.
The course also introduces the basic options for configurable startup and runtime control to deploy the flexible operation of the multiple processors in the UltraScale+™ MPSoC architecture. A design may typically not be running in full performance mode simultaneously at all times but only for peak periods, so the power management of all device resources is software programmable and enables power scaling at runtime. The design approaches will be explored running and debugging in simulation supported by QEMU or on actual hardware targets – both are equally important tools along the design methodology.
Due to accompanying exercises, the course offers in-depth and practice-oriented training.

FAQ
01. Can you help me with reserving the room?
If you need a room for a face-to-face course, please contact us. We will support you in choosing suitable accommodation.
02. What times in the day do courses start and end?
Our face-to-face courses start daily at 9 a.m. (CET/CEST) and end at 5 p.m., with two coffee breaks and an extended lunch break. The total course time per day is 6 hours. For online courses, the start is also at 9 a.m. (CET/CEST), but they end at 2:30 p.m.. The total course time per day is 4 and a half hours plus breaks.
03. Are course materials provided?
All participants of paid courses will receive English training materials in electronic or paper form.
04. Will I receive a course certificate?
Each participant of a paid PLC2 course will receive a signed certificate of attendance at the end of the course.
05. Can I pay with Training Credits (TCs)?
Of course, you can also pay for your training using your available TCs (Training Credits). We will then invoice AMD directly. If you do not have sufficient credit for the booked training, the difference can be paid for with an additional payment. The additional charge will be invoiced directly to you.
06. What are the options for payment?
You can pay us via bank transfer or with TCs (Training Credits). Unfortunately, payment via debit, credit card, or PayPal is not possible.
07. What is the deadline for payment?
Payment is due 14 days after the invoice date, without deduction. Please transfer the amount within that time.
08. What are the options for cancelling?
You can cancel free of charge up to 14 days before the course starts. If you have to cancel at short notice due to illness or other reasons, you have the option of adding a substitute participant or of making up the course at a later date (within 6 months).
09. When will I receive a firm commitment as to whether the course will take place?
You will receive binding confirmation 7 days before the course begins as to whether it will go ahead.
10. How many participants are required for a course to be given/what is the minimum number of participants?
We generally offer courses for 5 or more people. That means that if you would like to book a course at your premises, you need 5 people to register or need to pay the amount for 5 participants, even if fewer people attend.
11. Can I book a course that is given in English?
If you need a course that is officially advertised as given in German to be given in English, please contact us. We will try to make that possible for you.
12. What language is the course in?
Our webinars and online courses are conducted in English. All our F2F training courses are generally conducted in German. Feel free to contact us if you need face-to-face training in English or online training in German.
