AMD Zynq UltraScale+ ZCU102 (ZU9EG) vs Hailo-8 (M.2/PCIe, x86 host)

FPGA / Versal coverage note: 1,243 rows come from the AMD Vitis AI 3.0/3.5 Model Zoo tables; 733 (59%) are image classification. Detection, segmentation and other workloads are thinner, and there is no LLM or speech data for these boards. All are vendor-published (grade D). FPGA / Versal overview.

How to read these numbers

Every number is labelled. Confidence: A MLPerf closed, audited · B documented third-party method · C community / review · D vendor-published, not independently verified · E estimate. Power basis: measured with the result · spec vendor spec/envelope · power n/a not published.

Machine-readable: /find.json (see llms.txt); full tables are in “Show data”. Confidence grades: A audited MLPerf closed · B documented third-party · C community · D vendor-published · E estimate. Unknown values are shown as unknown, never estimated. Generated 2026-10-16 from public sources.
