Robust hardware design platform based on the Altera system-on-chip FPGA

Mouser now stocks Terasic Atlas-SoC / DE0-Nano-SoC development kits which provide a robust hardware design platform based on the Altera System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA. The Altera SoC FPGA integrates the latest dual-core Cortex-A9 embedded cores with industry-leading programmable logic for maximum design flexibility. Developers can leverage the power of reconfigurability along with a high-performance, low-power processor system. Altera's SoC combines an ARM-based hard processor system (HPS) consisting of processor, peripherals, and memory interfaces tied seamlessly with the FPGA fabric using a high-bandwidth interconnect backbone. The Atlas-SoC development board includes hardware such as high-speed DDR3 memory, analog-to-digital capabilities, Ethernet networking, and more. The Atlas-SoC/DE0-Nano-SoC Development Kits contain all components required to use the board in conjunction with a computer running Microsoft Windows XP or later, says the company.
