Absolute maximum ratings

*) Stresses beyond those listed under "Absolute Maximum Ratings" may cause permanent damage to the device. These are stress ratings only, which do not imply functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under "Recommended Operating Condition". Exposure to absolute-maximum rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.

Recommended Operating Conditions

Temperature range

Trenz Electronic classifies modules into temperature range categories by subsumption of its component data (PCB, ICs, connectors, passive components). The temperature ranges are values for ambient air temperature and do not reflect the junction temperature of individual components.

The categories are:

  • Modules with commercial (C) temperature grade are equipped with components that cover at least the ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 70 °C.
  • Modules with extended (E) temperature grade are equipped with components that cover at least the ambient temperature range of 0 °C to 85 °C.
  • Modules with industrial (I) temperature grade are equipped with components that cover at least the ambient temperature range of -40 °C to 85 °C.

These categories do not take into account the entire custom system consisting of:

  • Customer SoC design. The allowed main SoC temperature range is specified from the vendor by junction temperature using corresponding classes (C, E, I). See vendor documentation.
  • Cooling solution, active and or passive cooling.
  • Climate or environmental conditions besides ambient temperature range.
  • Module orientation, neighbouring assemblies, neither other heat sources nor the SoC as heat source to other components.

Classification of the module can be looked up here: AMD 7 Series Zynq 700 based modules i.e.: TExxxx-xx-xx'I'xx, the 'I' indicates that all components are at least in Industrial temperature class.

The temperature of individual components should not exceed the specified range due to self-heating or heating by adjacent components. The actual operating temperature range will depend on the customer design, usage, environment and cooling solution. Consult Cooling Solutions for more information.

Voltage rails

The following table aims to be generic for all variants. The voltage ranges are consistent across assembly variants, but exceptions are possible (custom request).
