1 Getting Started with Ultra96-V2
The Avnet Ultra96-V2 enables hardware and software developers to explore the capabilities of
the Zynq® UltraScale+™ MPSoC. Designers can create or evaluate designs for both the Zynq
Processor Subsystem (PS) and the Programmable Logic (PL) fabric.
Figure 1 – Ultra96-V2
This Getting Started Guide will outline the steps to setup the Ultra96-V2 hardware. It documents
the procedure to run a Linux design running on the Quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 MPCore
Processing System (PS).

5 Ultra96-V2 Basic Setup and Operation
The functionality of the Ultra96-V2 is determined by the application booted from the non-volatile
memory – by default that is the microSD Card. This Getting Started Guide allows system
developers to exercise and demonstrate multiple circuits through PetaLinux, including:
SSH Terminal Access
GPIO LEDs
Wi-Fi
In addition to the items included in the kit, you will also need the following to complete the
exercises in this tutorial.
Ultra96 USB-to-JTAG/UART Pod (required for terminal access)
o or
Monitor (requires connection to miniDP port), keyboard, mouse
An Ultra96-V2 image in its expected out-of-box configuration is shown below along with various
topology components highlighted.
