Agilex™ 7 FPGA F-Series Development Kit (2x F-Tile) (AGF023)

Altera

The Agilex 7 FPGA F-Series (2 × F-Tiles) Development Kit is a robust platform for evaluating and prototyping high-performance FPGA designs with advanced transceiver capabilities. Designed to support PCIe Gen4, QSFP-DD, QSFP, and CXL interfaces, the kit enables developers to explore a wide range of high-speed connectivity applications. It includes up to two DDR4 DIMM slots and a dedicated DDR4 component interface for HPS, making it ideal for memory-intensive workloads.

The kit is equipped with a comprehensive Board Test System (BTS) GUI, allowing users to validate transceiver performance, memory throughput, and GPIO functionality. It also includes Clock Controller and Power Monitor tools for fine-tuning and monitoring system behavior. With flexible configuration options, built-in programming tools, and support for both benchtop and PCIe system integration, this kit is a powerful tool for accelerating development in data center, networking, and embedded applications.
