IoT design board makes most of its FPGA

Arrow Electronics is targeting the maker market with an IoT design board based on an FPGA.

Mar. 31, 2017, Mar. 31, 2017 – 

The Arrow MAX1000 board can be installed directly into a custom application or integrated on to a completely separate board.

The Intel MAX10 FPGA has 8,000 logic elements. The chip also includes integrated flash memory, a 1Msample/s 12-bit ADC for analogue signals and a 3.3V power supply.

Other features include embedded SRAM, DSP blocks, instant-on within milliseconds, and the ability to implement Intel's NIOS II soft core embedded processor to perform microcontroller tasks.

At board-level there is what Arrow calls the USB-Blaster that enables the FPGA to be programmed directly from a PC and debugged using the free of charge Intel Quartus Prime Lite software.

This can also be integrated into the user's own circuit if required.
