We presently use MPSoCs for our latest generic BPM electronics platform called "DBPM3" in the Athos soft X-ray branch, as well as for new BPMs and general controls hardware and devices for SLS 2.0, a major upgrade of the Swiss Light Source. We are also in the process of upgrading our previous "MBU" (modular BPM Unit) platform for the SwissFEL linac and hard X-ray "Aramis" from external VMEbus based IOCs to integrated add-on cards with MPSoC IOCs. On all these MPSoCs, we are integrating an EPICS IOC, event receiver, measurement and feedback data real-time processing on a single chip. In this contribution, we describe our experience with the tight integration and daily operation of the various firmware and software components and features on the MPSoC, using the BPM system also to discuss general aspects relevant for other systems and components discussed in other PSI contributions on this conference.
