Altera Arria10 SoC SOM for performance driven applications

BANGALORE, India - Aug. 17, 2016 - PRLog -- iWave Systems, a leading embedded product & solution provider company, is planning to launch yet another System On Module (SOM) using Altera's Arria 10 SOC.  This new system on module is an addition to the company's growing FPGA SOC SOM roadmap following to its earlier Cyclone V SOC based SOM.

The Arria 10 SOC System on Module is based on the Arria 10 SX family device with F34 package. The module is equipped with 32-bit DDR4 memory support for HPS with optional ECC and 64-bit DDR4 support for FPGA. All the IOs and high speed transceiver blocks will be available on the SOM board to board connector. The module's high level block diagram is shown below.

Arria 10 SOCs, combine a feature-rich dual-core ARM Cortex A9 MPCore hard processor system (HPS) with industry-leading programmable logic technology. The Arria 10 SOCs offer a processor with rich feature set of embedded peripherals, hardened floating-point variable-precision digital signal processing blocks, High-speed transceivers, hard memory controllers, Secure boot capability, using Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm and Advanced Encryption Standard, and protocol intellectual property (http://www.syedusman.com/) controllers all in a single highly integrated package.

Arria 10 SOC achieve unprecedented increase in performance with reduction in power, form factor, cost and ideally suitable for performance driven applications such as infrastructure & intelligent equipment, test & measurement equipment, medical imaging equipment, storage and broadcasting.

Altera Arria® 10 SoC includes a sophisticated high-performance multicore ARM® Cortex®-A9 processor.  This processor can be used for a wide range of functions from very simple bare-metal applications running on one of the available cores to high-bandwidth, low-latency , real-time operations.  For a simple single-core application with minimal real-time constraints, bare-metal application can be build using Altera Hardware Libraries (HWLIBs).
