Title: Powering down the PL
Post by: dbarth on January 06, 2016, 09:39:43 AM
Hey,

I am trying to optimize power consumption on a Zynq application,  by having a Linux/PS part in suspend mode, with no PL running. I would like to reach <50mA while sleeping.

I found a note on the Xilinx forums about cutting power on the PL side, once the system is booted. See https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/Embedded-Linux/Reset-Zynq-FPGA/td-p/315725 (https://forums.xilinx.com/t5/Embedded-Linux/Reset-Zynq-FPGA/td-p/315725)

Is that doable on a TE0720 module? It seems that all VCCIN lines are shared between PS and PL. Or is there a way to pilot that from the system controller ? Or another 4x5 module better suited to that kind of configuration?

Hi,
this is currently not supported by our modules. If you are interested in custom development service, please sent your specification via email.
