AMD Adaptive SoCs
The AMD SoC portfolio integrates the software programmability of a processor with the hardware programmability of an FPGA.
Overview
Distributed intelligence across the electric grid is key to maximizing efficiency of precious energy resources. Speed, scalability and resilience are key to ensure the reliable supply of energy to industry and households.
Power Quality Monitoring
AMD devices can handle the high number of simultaneous measurements that come from a widely spread grid. The acquisition of voltages and currents from hundreds or thousands of measurement units (MUs) requires controllers with high performance and the hardware protocols for energy substation communication (IEEE 61850). Programmable logic can efficiently offload processors for power quality monitoring, in particular thanks to the parallelism and to the availability of DSP and memory on chip.
Low Latency Networks
Low latency networks, with zero loss switchover in case of an error, requires the connectivity as defined by applicable standards like IEC 61850, in particular the High Availability Seamless Ring protocol (HSR) or the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP). Security features and HW based cryptography support the robustness of the networks.
Design Examples
Adaptive SoC with Processing System for differentiating applications
The implemented HSR, PRP, and TSN provide standard-conform resilient networking with network synchronization. With an Arm Processing System, Smart Grid Control and communication become more efficient to SCADA systems and the cloud. Additionally, security extensions such as Crypto IP, cybersecurity stack, and Programmable Logic protect against cyber threats, and Power Quality analytics engine, accelerators, and custom logic enable power quality monitoring. All these features together offer a comprehensive, secure solution for reliable and efficient modern industrial operations.
