Compact Versal Adaptive SoC: Power and Board Design | Online
With the powerful Versal™ adaptive SoC device family, the system level design requires an approach to create a power system that supports the device’s engines for full capability.
This course provides the background to plan designs with these devices based on analysis of the design resource usage. AMD provides the tooling and guidance to successfully adopt such designs. The application of the PDM tool will be explained, and the lectures also describe the approaches to choosing a suitable package. Specific rules are provided for designing PL, PS, external memory, and transceiver interfaces. With these methods, a PCB design can be planned with respect to power supply, decoupling, and thermal management, which can be documented in the Versal™ adaptive SoC schematic checklist. You will learn to judge when signal integrity is important and relevant, to interpret, for example, IBIS models, and to select appropriate termination procedures. Signal refection and crosstalk effects are described and demonstrated by simulation based on UltraScale™ architecture examples. Furthermore, simulation examples are given for common memory interfaces as well as for serial transceiver interconnection.
Due to accompanying exercises, the course offers in-depth and practice-oriented training. Attendees of the online live training will perform the practical exercises in real time with instructor assistance.

FAQ
01. In which countries is PLC2 an Authorized Training Provider (ATP) of AMD?
PLC2 is an ATP in Cyprus, Czech Republic, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, and Turkey.
02. What does AMD ATP stand for?
AMD Authorized Training Providers (ATPs) are expert instructors specializing in all aspects of FPGA and embedded design from software to systems and beyond. Courses offered leverage training materials specifically developed by AMD engineers and enhanced further via the specialized knowledge and expertise of AMD ATP instructors.
03. Can the training content be customized to specific FPGA and embedded design project requirements?
Yes. On request, we create customized training courses that are precisely tailored to your company’s tools, processes, and methods. See also our In-House training format.
04. Are there hands-on exercises in PLC2 training courses?
Depending on the course format, hands-on exercises are included in most of the training sessions, especially in workshops, power workshops, and online live courses.
05. How can I register for a PLC2 training course?
Go to the page of your desired training course and click the button »Book workshop«. You will jump directly to the booking form. Fill out the form and click submit. You will receive a confirmation e-mail immediately.
06. Can you help me with booking a room for the duration of my PLC2 training?
If you need a room for a face-to-face course, please contact us. We will support you in choosing suitable accommodation.
07. What times in the day do PLC2 training courses start and end?
Our face-to-face and online 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.
08. Are course materials provided in a PLC2 training?
All participants of paid courses will receive English training materials in electronic or paper form.
09. Will I receive a certificate upon completion of the PLC2 training course?
Each participant of a paid PLC2 course will receive a signed certificate of attendance at the end of the course.
10. Can I pay PLC2 training 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.
11. What are the options for payment for PLC2 training?
You can pay us via bank transfer or with TCs (Training Credits). Unfortunately, payment via debit, credit card, or PayPal is not possible.
12. What is the deadline for payment for PLC2 training?
Payment is due 14 days after the invoice date, without deduction. Please transfer the amount within that time.
13. What are the options for cancelling a PLC2 training?
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).
14. When will I receive a firm commitment as to whether the PLC2 training course will take place?
You will receive binding confirmation 7 days before the course begins as to whether it will go ahead.
15. What is the minimum number of participants for a PLC2 training?
We generally offer courses for 5 or more people. This means that if you would like to book a course at your location, either five people must register or you must pay for five participants, even if fewer people attend.
16. Can I book a PLC2 training course that is given in English?
