Avnet MiniZed board

MiniZed™ is a single-core Zynq 7Z007S development board. With the launch of the latest cost-optimized portfolio from AMD, this board targets entry-level Zynq developers with a low-cost prototyping platform.

Its compact design features on-board connectivity through USB, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Peripherals can be plugged into dual Pmodcompatible connectors, the Arduino-compatible shield interface or the USB 2.0 host interface. JTAG circuitry is incorporated onto the MiniZed base board, so with a single micro-USB cable to your laptop you are already up and running. User LED’s, a button and a switch allow for a physical board interface. 

Features

On-board connectivity through the Murata "Type 1DX" wireless module that provides

• Wi-Fi 802.11b/g/n
• Bluetooth 4.1 plus EDR and BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy)

On-board memory from Micron

• 512 MB DDR3L
• 128 Mb QSPI flash
• 8 GB eMMC

Peripherals can be plugged into

• Dual Pmod-compatible connectors (16 GPIO)
• Arduino-compatible shield interface (22 GPIO)
• USB 2.0 host interface

Physical interface

• Two bi-element user LED’s
• User pushbutton
• Reset pushbutton
• User switch

The integrated power supply from Dialog Semiconductor generates all on-board voltages. An auxiliary microUSB supply input can be used to power designs that require additional current.

On-board MEMS sensors from ST Microelectronics

• LIS2DS12 Motion and temperature sensor
• MP34DT05 Digital Microphone

JTAG circuitry is incorporated onto the MiniZed base board. Only a single microUSB cable is required for power, programming, JTAG emulation and serial terminal debug output.
