Description

SE125 is a low profile, 8 lanes PCIe card powered by the Xilinx Zynq Utrascale+ MPSOC (XCZU7EV-2FFVC1156E / XCZU7EG/ XCZU11EG / XCZU7CG ). When XZU7EV is populated, it is capable of video decoding/encoding, up to 8K resolution, targeting Data Center video streaming applications and with 11EG it can be a network accelerator card. SE125 offers eight lanes of PCI Express Gen 4, two front-panel USB 3.0 and one QSFP, 16 GB of DDR4 memory to PL organized as 2 independent banks of 8GB each (64 bits wide), 8GB of DDR4 to PS. Summary of devices and available resources:
