Achilles SoM
Presentation of the Arria ® 10 SoC som
Product overview
The Arria® 10 SoC SOM is based on the Intel® Arria® 10 SoC FPGA, and is available in three different versions according to the FPGA, memory, and connectors needed (see the “Tech Spec” tab).
Featuring an ARM dual-core Cortex-A9 MPCore and up to 660 KLEs of advanced low-power FPGA logic elements, the Arria® 10 SoC combines the flexibility and ease of programming of a CPU with the configurability and parallel processing power of an FPGA.
Its small size and its strong FPGA makes it perfectly suited to embedded and industrial markets.
Thanks to a system-on-chip (SoC) (an integrated circuit inside the FPGA, most often a CPU (central processing unit) processor), the FPGA can better control the board.
The target markets include automotives, video broadcasting, machine and intelligent vision, industry, military, testing and measurements, and medical.
The Arria® 10 SoC SOM is shipped alone.
This System On Module is also available in a Development Kit : The Achilles DevKit. This Arria ® 10 SoC development kit will provide you with schematics, reference designs and a starter board.
We also offer a PCIe Carrier Board as an optional extra product compatible with all reflex ces Arria® 10 SoC SOMs, or we can design a custom carrier board.

REFLEX CES’s Arria® 10 SoC SOM offers a range of interfaces according to your needs
Our Arria® 10 SoC SOM offers primary interfaces, such as several banks of DDR4 memory, I2C and USB links, FMC connectors (with many available LVDS/single ended I/Os), JTAG connectivity, CPU, peripherals, switches, ethernet interfaces. We also deliver all the relevant design rules for our boards, to develop the customer application carrier board (we can also develop it based on customer specifications). We provide online technical support and schematics, and several certifications may be available on request.
The Arria 10 SoC FPGA is a semiconductor that saves board space with integration, with twice the density of the previous generation. This leads to lower energy requirements and therefore lower power consumption. Our system-on-module is designed for productivity and is perfectly suited to embedded and industrial markets.
Our Arria ® 10 SoC som is specially designed for customer needs. Our sales team is available to advise you on the best solution according to your needs, at sales@reflexces.com.
