Altera

The Agilex 5 FPGA and SoC E-Series 065B Modular Development Kit is a comprehensive platform for evaluating and prototyping high-performance FPGA and SoC designs. It combines a modular board with a carrier board to deliver a rich set of connectivity options, including PCIe Gen4, SFP28, HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort 2.0, and dual 2.5G TSN Ethernet. The kit supports three DDR4 memory banks—two for FPGA fabric and one for the HPS—enabling high-bandwidth data processing and embedded system development.

Designed for flexibility, the kit includes FMC+ and MIPI connectors for expansion into vision, AI, and industrial applications. The integrated Board Test System (BTS) GUI simplifies validation of clocks, power, memory, and transceivers. With built-in USB-JTAG, programmable clocks, and robust power sequencing via MAX 10, the kit is ideal for developers building advanced systems in networking, edge AI, and embedded computing.
