Foundation for a High-Performance Linux-Capable Advanced SoC

System-on-chip (SoC) designers can build custom SoCs based on a Cortex-A5 design that addresses high-performance application needs, such as smart-home gateways, edge computing, industrial human-machine interfaces (HMI), and more.

 Features and Benefits

Fast Time to Market

Accelerate development with a pre-verified subsystem that can act as a base for silicon designs.
Out-of-the-Box Linux Support

Take advantage of open-source software and libraries, with out-of-the-box Linux support.
Reduce Risk and Costs

Kickstart development on the MPS3 FPGA board and mature the design before going to tape out.
