Workshop

Invitation

Avnet Silica and Xilinx are organizing a series of Speedway Workshops based
around the Xilinx Zynq SoC Devices

This series of workshops will train designers on how to design Xilinx Zynq SoC
devices.
Following workshops will be organized during fall 2017:
- Developing Zynq Software
- Developing Zynq Hardware
- Using Petalinux to integrate sensor peripherals on the Minized Module
- A practical guide to getting started with Xilinx SDSoC

An extra workshop is planned for Q22018 (more info to come later)

- Vivado HLS, a beginners guide into C based design

All workshops are hands-on workshop, free of charge.

The workshops are based upon the MiniZed board from Avnet
(http://zedboard.org/product/minized)
Customers need to bring their own laptop, with SW installed, and MiniZed Board +
necessary cables. All info will be given prior to the workshops.
For dates and detailed agenda, see following pages.
Pre-registration can be done by returning the included registration form by mail to
kees.vanegmond@avnet.eu
Number of seats per session is limited.
