Octavo Systems, a leader in providing highly integrated System-in-Package technology solutions, is excited to announce the production release of the powerful OSDZU3 System-in-Package (SiP) and the OSDZU3-REF, an open-source development and evaluation platform. Both products are available for order through our distribution partner, Avnet.
Houston, Texas, United States (March 1, 2023) – Octavo Systems LLC, a leading provider of System-in-Package (SiP) solutions, has officially released its latest offering, the OSDZU3-REF Development Platform. This platform gives system designers a comprehensive development environment for evaluating, testing, and starting product development using the OSDZU3 System-in-Package (SiP).
Built around the AMD-Xilinx ZU3 Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC, the OSDZU3 SiP integrates LPDDR4, a Flexible Power System, EEPROM, Oscillators, and hundreds of passive components into a compact 20.5mm x 40mm BGA.
The OSDZU3-REF platform features standard peripherals such as 1Gb Ethernet, USB-C, Display Port, and SATA, and provides expandability through PMOD headers, Mikroe Click™, standard 100Mil headers, and an FMC LPC Connector. It also features an Onboard µUSB JTAG debugger, a µUSB UART connection and access to both SYSMON and PMBUS through standard 100mil connectors.
Octavo Systems leveraged the integration provided by the OSDZU3 SiP to create the OSDZU3-REF using just four PCB layers with low-cost design rules. “The OSDZU3-REF highlights the benefits of using an Octavo SiP to simplify and reduce the cost of your system, “says Erik Welsh, CTO of Octavo Systems. “Without the OSDZU3 SiP, this reference platform would need 8 to 12 layers with much more complex design rules to support the AMD-Xilinx MPSoC, the power system, and the LPDDR4.” (Read More…)
