ABOUT THE PRODUCT

Unlock advanced boot and power management features with the QSPI eMMC module Gen2, an essential E3 add-on designed specifically for Red Pitaya’s PRO Gen 2 boards. Whether you need secure startup, safe shutdown, or multiple boot options, this intelligent module gives you full control with a single button press—perfect for embedded systems, industrial environments, or automation setups where reliability and repeatability matter.

Built around a dedicated STM microcontroller, the module handles power sequencing, watchdog functionality, and boot media selection with precision. Whether you prefer booting from a microSD card or switching to a high-speed eMMC, this module allows seamless configuration. It’s preloaded with open-source Arduino (C++) firmware, offering full transparency and customization potential.

Beyond power control, the QSPI eMMC Boot Module adds serious expansion capability. With a connector for 8 high-speed differential pairs (16 GPIOs) routed directly to the Zynq 7020 FPGA, it opens the door to high-speed digital interfacing and custom I/O configurations, without the need for additional boards.

Fully powered through the Red Pitaya base unit, the QSPI eMMC module Gen2 is compact, convenient, and ready to support your most demanding workflows.
