Hello, this post mostly goes out to Digilent staff, but I'd like to hear other's input on this as well. I noticed a couple months ago that the Cora Z7-10 was discontinued and only the single core option is now available. Is this due to chip shortages/supply chain issues? Is there any plan to bring this version of the board back?
I have both the single and dual core, and unfortunately the single core model does not play nice with the Xilinx toolchain for petalinux. I was eventually able to get linux working on the single core, but I had to modify the zynq-7000.dtsi to exclude references to the second core. All the bare metal stuff works nicely.
I just thought it seemed odd to discontinue the product when I thought the pin-outs on both chips were the same (I could be entirely wrong on this).
