ZEKE Platform
High performance platform for industrial equipment powered by Cyclone V SoC
The ZEKE Platform is developed mainly for industrial Ethernet applications.
- ARM Cortex A9 x2 @925MHz High performance CPU board Linux etc., can be used in SMP mode.
- ZEKE is the only board, in which both the ARM Gbit Ethernet ports can be used.
- Since two 10/100 PHYs are implemented in the FPGA, TSE MAC from Intel Corporation can be used.
EtherCAT Implementation
- Hardware Master
Hardware Master can be evaluated with the FPGA’s Ethernet - Software Master
It is possible to implement paid software masters from various companies using the ethernet of the ARM. We also provide the demo environment for implementing the Open source Master stack. - Slave
Ethernet of the FPGA can also be used as a slave by implementing BECKHOFF EtherCAT slave IP etc.
