Notes about Alveo U280 Data Center Accelerator Card

Xilinx Alveo U280 PCIe Accelerator Card 8GB HBM2 PCIe QSFP28 Tested/working is a second hand card.

The card is EOL, Alveo™ U280 Support and Downloads - Latest Version has support resources.

In Vivado 2026.2 the XCU280-FSVH2892-2L-E part number wasn't available after installing Alveo support.

From Vivado 2024.1 on, some part numbers for an Alveo U280 board are removed because they are EOL.

Added Alveo cards support to a Vivado 2023.2 installation and could:

  1. Create a project for the xcu280-fsvh2892-2L-e part which is based upon the Virtex UltraScale+ HBM product family.
  2. Add HBP IP (1.0) to a block diagram.
