krtkl’s snikcerdoodle black system-on-module (SoM) is a prototype-to-production platform for building high-integrity Internet of Things (IoT) products.
Built on a Xilinx Zynq-7020 system-on-chip (SoC) and a Texas Instruments WiLink 8 wireless module, snickerdoodle is designed to make high-performance, power-efficient computing and artificial intelligence (AI) at the network edge practical, affordable, and scalable.
The 2in. × 3.5in. (50.8mm × 88.9mm) board offers a Zynq SoC with two 866 MHz Arm Cortex-A9 cores and a 1.3M gate Xilinx Artix-7 field-programmable gate array (FPGA), dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity, 1GByte of LPDDR2 RAM, 125 reconfigurable FPGA inputs/outputs (I/O), and 55 additional I/O pins.
Out of the box, snickerdoodle supports Ubuntu Linux, Python, PYNQ, C/C++, and bare metal. Every snickerdoodle black includes an adhesive-backed copper heat sink.
breakyBreaky is a snickerdoodle breakout baseboard that enables engineers to access the full snickerdoodle pinout via 0.1in. (2.54mm) headers.
For applications and projects that have less stringent size constraints, the 3.94in. × 4.92in. (100mm × 125mm) breakyBreaky comes loaded with 270 pins, as well as a 14-pin Xilinx JTAG header, a 0.1in. (2.54mm) grid plated-through-hole prototyping area, DC power jack, and four adhesive-backed locking PCB supports.
The piSmasher (not the subtlest of hints!) is a single-board computer (SBC) snickerdoodle baseboard for audio/video processing, networking, edge AI, and general computing applications.
It includes dual, FPGA-connected Gigabit Ethernet interfaces with PHY support for Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) as well as simultaneous HDMI video input and output at up to WUXGA (1920 × 1200p) at 60Hz and 8-channel, 32-bit/192kHz HDMI audio input and output.
Additionally, piSmasher has four High-Speed USB 2.0 Type-A Host receptacles and a dedicated 96kHz stereo audio codec with colour-coded 3.5mm jacks for line-in, line-out, and headset (stereo audio, mono microphone), and provides access to 25 of snickerdoodle’s reconfigurable FPGA I/O.
The 3.5in. × 5.66in. (88.9mm × 143.8mm) board also has an I²C identification and configuration EEPROM, 14-pin Xilinx JTAG header, DC power jack, and four adhesive-backed locking PCB supports.
