Intel’s Programmable Solutions Group (PSG) is expanding its FPGA item variety with the intro of 6 brand-new programmable platforms targeted at various kinds of clients and work. In addition to a brand-new sub-family of Agilex 5-series offerings, Intel is introducing its brand new Agilex 3 series offerings together with brand-new Agilex.
The emphasize these days’s statement is the Intel Agilex 3 FPGA series of power and cost-optimized FPGAs in compact kind elements. The household consists of the Agilex 3 B-series FPGAs that boast a greater I/O density in compact kind elements ( compared to Intel Max 10 FPGAs) and are enhanced for board and system management, consisting of server platform management applications.
On the other side of the Agilex 3 spectrum is the C-series FPGAs that are crafted to offer additional abilities, making them apt for a broad spectrum of intricate programmable reasoning gadgets (CPLD) and FPGA applications throughout different markets. Intel states that its Agilex 3-series FPGAs will be offered quickly without revealing when precisely.
Another notable intro is the Intel Agilex 5 FPGA E-series based upon the 2 nd Generation Hyperflex FPGA architecture and customized for ingrained edge applications and for that reason including high performance effectiveness. Intel produces these FPGAs in home utilizing its Intel 7 production innovation (previously called 10 nm Improved SuperFin), which is why it states that these parts provide 1.6 times greater efficiency per watt compared to contending FPGAs made on a 16 nm-class procedure innovation (perhaps describing Xilinx’s FPGAs integrated in this procedure node). Furthermore, this FPGA series incorporates an AI tensor block, a function formerly special to Intel’s premium programmable parts, placing it as a service for edge AI jobs. Intel will begin tasting Agilex 5 E-series parts with style software application in Q1 2024. A system simulator for these FPGAs will be offered in the cloud in late 2024.
Intel likewise stated that it had actually started deliveries of its Intel Agilex 7 FPGAs with the R-Tile chiplet. These FPGAs use a PCIe 5.0 user interface with the CXL procedure on top that enable to rapidly release programmable accelerators for particular jobs that can take advantage of greater bandwidth and lower latencies.
In addition to exposing brand-new FPGAs, Intel likewise stated that the very first industrial item based upon its F2000X facilities processing system platform is now delivering. The part is the Napatech F2070X IPU that has 2 100 GbE ports and is powered by the Agilex AGFC023 FPGA and an Intel Xeon D SoC.
Settling the brand-new intros is the Nios V/c compact microcontroller, which is a soft-core IP, based upon the RISC-V architecture, which can be configured utilizing the business’s Quartus Prime Pro software application.
