Version
2023.1 English

The platform name is used when creating acceleration applications in Vitis or targeting platforms when using the Vitis compiler (v++). Pre-built platform images also use the same file name and directory name.

Pre-built Vitis embedded platforms use the following naming convention.
<Vendor>_<Board>_<Feature>_<Vitis Tool Version>_<Release_Version>

Where:

<Vendor>
The board vendor. For all AMD-created pre-built platforms, use xilinx.
<Feature>
The special function of this platform. For example:
  • base indicates that it connects all possible resources for you to use in an acceleration application.
  • DFX indicates that it supports AMD Dynamic Function eXchange (DFX).
<Vitis Tool Version>
The specific version of the Vitis development platform that the platform is designed for. This also indicates the version of the AMD Vivado™ Design Suite tools that the pre-built platform is created by.
<Release_Version>
The release version of the platform. The first version is 1.

For example, the following platform names follow the naming convention:

  • xilinx_vck190_base_202310_1
  • xilinx_vck190_base_dfx_202310_1
  • xilinx_zcu104_base_202310_1
  • xilinx_zcu102_base_202310_1
  • xilinx_zcu102_base_dfx_202310_1
Note: Platform source code uses a git branch for versions. The directory name is <Board>_<Feature> (for example, zcu102_base). The platform generated from the source in https://github.com/Xilinx/Vitis_Embedded_Platform_Source has the name xilinx_zcu102_base_202020_1.
