Hello,

I wondered any plan to upgrade zynqberry to XC7Z020 from XC7Z010.

Sincerely,


Thorsten Trenz

Hi,
yes and no. We thought about it, but cost will go up considerable. If we see some volume or more requests from customer base, we may push priority.

Best Regards,

Thank you for reply.

I understand your concern about price and market.
I don't know about industrial market, but
I think this board is the best for educational purpose.
The zxxboard has been used a lot in school, but if I started to add external devices or interfaces, it was too expensive, even more than the board itself.
but zynqberry is very easy and cheap to add any other features from the pi echo system.
I have a plan to open a course using this board, but two complaints are small fpga and flash boot.
XC7Z020 will be enough for the most educational purpose, and flash boot, I don't know why it has to be.
I need to program two times (flash and sd card), which is also bad for educational purpose.
I hope the answer to be yes in near future.

Regards,

Hi,
at the moment not, we try to keep the cost down, and emmc is a big cost factor.
