The PS for Versal architecture integrates a feature-rich 64-bit dual core Arm Cortex®-A72 (APU) for full power domain and dual core Arm Cortex-A72 (RPU) for low power domain. APU PLL is available in the full power domain and generates clocks for Arm Cortex-A72 core, L2 Cache, FPD Interconnect, and CCI. RPU PLL is available in the low power domain and generates clocks for Arm Cortex-A72 core, TCM, OCM, and LPD Interconnect.

Note: L2 cache must be enabled when using A72s. PDM does this automatically and adds power to FPD.
