Terasic Apollo Agilex SOM
Terasic Agilex® SOM Accelerates AI Edge Applications
Designed for high-performance AI-enabled edge solutions and HPC solutions, the Terasic Apollo Agilex SOM board packs unbeatable performance optimization and provides the highest real-time compute/watts for edge AI applications.
Apollo Agilex SOM takes advantage of the latest Intel® Agilex® SoC with 1400K logic elements to obtain performance and power breakthrough (with up to 40% lower power than Stratix 10 series). Combining high-end hardware interfaces such as two high-capacity and high-bandwidth DDR4 SO-DIMM Sockets (up to 32GB DDR4), onboard QSFP28 connector, PCIe Gen 4x16 up to 25.8 Gbps/ch with carrier, on-board USB-Blaster II, and FMC/FMC+ connectors for I/O expansion, the Terasic board delivers more than 2X the performance of previous-generation development kits.
