So-logic team developed a new SOZIUS development platform!

 

A sozius development platform is a small, portable electronic device that can easily be powered from a USB port, USB charger, Power Over Ethernet or a battery pack. You can easily develop software and/or digital hardware for it, because it uses an FPGA with an embedded processors. For many applications, 90% of the overall design is fixed and only 10% makes the difference. Sozius delivers already a well designed board and should help you to focus on the specifics of your project and can be easily extended to meet your needs. The main system with many interfaces and Linux is already preconfigured and ready for use. It should be easy to carry around for training and teaching.


With three expansion slots it is easily expandable to make it useful for many different kinds of applications.


”Make it as simple as possible, but not simpler.” (Albert Einstein)

Features:

  • You can select between many different Kits that come already with additional modules, firmware and bitstream

  • Buy the sozius.xxx.yyy kit which is basic system without any boards and buy additional modules or develop them by ourself

  • Download the necessary images (include FSBL, elf for PS and bit file PL from our website www.so-logic.net/sozius)

  • Develop your own Firmware

  • Develop your own FPGA in VHDL or Verilog

  • Develop your own module and plug it in your device


Standard Interfaces:

  • RJ45 with 1G for remote communication connected to PS

  • microUSB USB device/host for local communication to PS

  • microUSB Power Supply < 10W for the whole board, optional PoE, combined with debug UART for PS

  • microUSB JTAG for programming and debugging (Vivado Analyser and GNU Debugger)


List of available sub-modules for different use cases:

  • sozius.eth - Ethernet point to point personal encryption - 2 x RJ45 connected to PL, with key management
