Course Overview

The AMD Designing with Versal AI Engine: Architecture and Design Flow - 1 (AIE-ARCH) course provides a comprehensive introduction to the Versal AI Engine architecture and its application in high-performance computing. Designed for software and hardware developers, system architects, and engineers involved in accelerating compute-intensive applications, this course equips learners with the foundational knowledge to leverage AMD’s adaptive SoC platforms. Participants will explore the AI Engine’s internal structure, data movement mechanisms between AI Engines and programmable logic (PL), and the programming model using data flow graphs. With AI acceleration becoming critical in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and data centers—where AMD Versal devices are deployed in over 200 design wins—this training addresses a growing demand for engineers skilled in heterogeneous computing architectures.

This course emphasizes hands-on learning through six labs conducted in the Vitis™ Unified IDE 2025.2 environment, where students configure and optimize AI Engine kernels for real-world workloads. Key technologies covered include the Versal adaptive SoC architecture, AI Engine interfaces (AXI-Stream, memory, lock), scalar and vector data types, AI Engine APIs, adaptive data flow (ADF) graphs, and performance analysis tools. Learners will build single and multiple kernel designs, implement data flow graphs, and analyze kernel performance using Vitis debug and profiling tools. A capstone lab involves optimizing a vectorized signal processing kernel for throughput and resource utilization, simulating deployment in radar or 5G baseband applications, providing practical experience directly applicable to industrial use cases.

Upon completion, participants are well-prepared for advanced development on AMD platforms and lay the groundwork for pursuing specialized certifications in adaptive computing. Engineers with Versal AI Engine expertise report salary premiums of up to 25% in high-performance computing roles, reflecting the technology’s strategic value. Koenig Solutions enhances this learning experience with Guaranteed-to-Run batches, official AMD courseware, and access to expert instructors for 1-on-1 mentoring. Graduates of the Designing with Versal AI Engine: Architecture and Design Flow - 1 (AIE-ARCH) course gain a competitive edge, enabling them to lead next-generation AI and signal processing system designs in industries driving the future of intelligent computing.
