Sulfur SOM & Carrier Board

Sulfur, the Modular Som-based Dev Kit for Intel® Agilex® 5E FPGA Developers

Macnica’s engineering team has developed a feature-rich kit based on a production-ready SoM with Intel’s Agilex 5E FPGA with 656 KLEs. This kit includes substantial professional video interfaces, mobile interfaces, generous memory, networking, and direct access to I/O and transceivers. The CoaXPress and SLVS-EC video IP are also from the Macnica mPRESSION team, following their 10-year history of advanced FPGA IP development.

Macnica’s Sulfur kit is an ideal platform for high-end video, medical video, machine vision, robotics, sensor integration, edge, and AI computing, and almost all industrial applications. The production-ready SoM gives developers an avenue for future Agilex 5 upgrades, as well as a core processing component for quick turnaround products or prototypes.

The production-grade SOM includes the largest capacity Agilex® 5E part with 656 KLEs, multiple powerful dual-core ARM® Cortex® processors, DDR4, PCIe Gen4, 24 transceivers, and a host of high-speed interfaces along with GPIO.
