**this model is based on Zynq XC7Z020-1I (Tj: -40° / +100°)
* carrier board: [[BoraEVB]]
* processor frequency: 666 667 MHz
* FPGA frequency
**30 MHz (Tamb = +85°C)
*Linux kernel: <code>3.15.0-bora-2.1.0-xilinx-00044-g372fcab #5 SMP PREEMPT Thu Oct 23 13:54:38 CEST 2014 armv7l GNU/Linux</code>
*root file system mounted over Gigabit Ethernet link.
Please note that, when Tamb has been set to +85°C, the Bora SOM has been coupled to a passive heatsink heat sink to prevent exceeding maximum Zynq's junction temperature.
At application level, PS executes concurrently several tasks including:

==Configuration #3==
===Testbed===
Measurements have been performed on the following platform:
* Bora SOM: DBRD4110Q2P-01
**this model is based on Zynq XQ7Z020-1Q (Tj: -40° / +125°)
* carrier board: [[BoraEVB]]
* processor frequency: 667 MHz
* FPGA frequency
**30 MHz (Tamb = +85°C)
**150 MHz (Tamb = +-40°C)
*U-Boot: <code>2013.04 (Aug 25 2014 - 23:52:57) [belk-2.1.0]</code>
*Linux kernel: <code>3.17.0-bora-2.1.0-xilinx-00053-gb95579a</code>
*root file system mounted over Gigabit Ethernet link.
Please note that, when Tamb has been set to +85°C, the Bora SOM has been coupled to a passive heat sink to prevent exceeding maximum Zynq's junction temperature.
 
At application level, PS executes concurrently several tasks including:
*two instances of <code>burnCortexA9</code>
*periodic reading of I2C RTC (Maxim DS3232M)
*periodic reading of Zynq's ADCs
*periodic reading of voltage/current probe (Texas Instruments INA226) connected to the SOM's power rail
*one instance of <code>memtester</code> over 50 MByte of SDRAM
*endless loop of writing/reading/verifying operations on microSD card
*periodic reading of I2C remote temperature sensor (TExas Instruments TMP421)
*endless loop of writing/reading/verifying operations on memory stick connected to USB port
*endless loop of writing/reading/verifying operations on NAND flash memory.
===Results===
*Tamb: temperature of the ambient surrounding the DUT
*Tj_max: maximum Zynq's junction temperature measured during the test
*P_max: maximum power absorption of Bora SOM
