This section describes the Arm® Cortex®-A72-based processing system in the Versal AI Edge Series, Versal AI Core Series, Versal Prime Series, and Versal Premium Series.
Note: The Processing System Wizard section describes the Arm
Cortex-A78AE-based processing system. This system
is in the Versal AI Edge Series Gen 2 and Versal Prime Series Gen 2.
Important: The CIPS IP is
applicable to most devices with the Arm
Cortex-A72-based processing system. The relevant
families are Versal AI Edge Series, Versal AI Core Series, Versal Prime Series,
Versal Premium Series, and Versal RF Series.
The VP1902, VM2152, and Versal RF devices have an Arm Cortex-A72-based processing system. The devices use the PS Wizard IP rather than the CIPS IP.
The Control, Interface, and Processing System (CIPS) IP core groups and configures the PS, PMC, and CPM modules as shown in the following figure.
Note: The Versal adaptive SoC includes multiple power domains. In the PS, the RPU
is in the low-power domain (LPD). The APU is in the full-power domain (FPD). The
platform management controller (PMC) is in the PMC power domain. CPM has two
implementations depending on the target device capability:
- CPM4 that is compliant with the PCI Express Base Specification Revision 4.0
- CPM5 that is compliant with the PCI Express Base Specification Revision 5.0
