Massive Memory Bandwidth FPGA
The M-Series FPGA, with in-package HBM2E memory, support for LPDDR5, DDR5, and DDR4 memory, features a new hardened memory network-on-chip (NoC) to enable massive memory bandwidth with improved efficiency and fewer FPGA resources required.
The Go-To Solution for Massive Memory Bandwidth
Watch how M-Series FPGAs provide a solution to your most challenging memory bandwidth applications.
Benefits
Built for Fast and High Bandwidth Memory Applications
The M-Series FPGA wide and flexible memory hierarchy with dual dedicated hardened memory controllers, and hardened memory Network on Chip (NoC) allows designers to reach the highest HBM2E and DDR5 memory bandwidth and run the memory computation near the fabric, significantly reducing memory bottlenecks and latency.
High Compute Capability
Do the work of multiple FPGAs in one. Up to 37 TFLOPs of FP16 performance3, up to 116 Gbps transceiver rates, and up to 3.9M logical elements (LE) deliver extreme density in an FPGA.
Support for High-Bandwidth and Coherent Attach to Intel Processors
Directly attach M-Series FPGA to Intel® Xeon® Scalable processors over the PCIe 5.0 bus or use the new Compute Express Link (CXL) protocol for exceptional I/O performance in moving compute workloads between CPU and FPGA.
Use Cases and Applications
Overcome Memory Bottlenecks
M-Series FPGAs combine high fabric densities and flexible memory options such as HBM2E, LPDDR5, DDR5, and DDR4 memory support to provide the right balance of capacity, power efficiency, and performance for memory-driven workloads in Network, Broadcast, Cloud, and more.
Enable Next-Gen Applications with a Data Superhighway
Offering the industry’s highest speed transceivers (116G PAM4), PCIe 5.0, Compute Express Link, 400G Ethernet, and the highest DSP compute density2, the M-Series devices can support the throughput requirements of the most demanding applications from the data center to the edge.
Key Features
Variable-precision DSP
Up to 38 TFLOPs of FP16 performance3, up to 116 Gbps transceiver rates, and up to 3.9M logical elements (LE) deliver extreme density in an FPGA.
Hardened Memory Network-on-Chip
By using Hardened memory NoC, unleash industry’s highest memory bandwidth, over 1TBps, using in-package HBM2E (up to 32GB capacity) and hardened DDR5/LPDDR5 memory controller (supporting 5,600 Mbps).
Second Generation Intel® Hyperflex™ FPGA Architecture on Intel 7nm
This core fabric offers key advantages to enable significant design optimization and key advantages to deliver higher performance, lower total power, greater design functionality, and increased designer productivity.
Configurable 116Gb/s Transceivers
M-series includes industry’s fastest transceivers 58G/116Gb/s PAM4 and 32GB/s NRZ to allow deployment of 800G Ethernet and single-lane 100Gb/s.
PCIe 5.0
PCI Express (PCIe) protocol is a high-performance, scalable, and feature-rich serial protocol with data transfer rates from 2.5 giga transfers per second (GT/s) to 32.0 GT/s.
Compute Express Link (CXL)
CXL enables M-series to attach to Intel® Xeon® Scalable processor offering exceptional I/O performance in moving compute workloads between CPU and FPGA.

Product and Performance Information
Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA M-Series theoretical maximum bandwidth of 1.099 TBps with 2 banks of HBM2e using ECC as data and 8 DDR5 DIMMs as compared to Xilinx Versal HBM memory bandwidth of 1.056 TBps as of October 14, 2021, and to Achronix Speedster 7t memory bandwidth of 0.5 TBps as of October 14, 2021.
Intel Agilex® 7 FPGA M-Series DSP compute density projected at 88.6 INT8 TOPs and 18.45 FP32 TFLOPs, compared to Xilinx Versal HBM at 74.9 INT8 TOPs and 17.5 FP32 TFLOPs of October 14, 2021, and to Achronix Speedster 7t at 61.4 INT8 TFLOPs and no support for FP32, as of October 14, 2021.
Each Intel Agilex® FPGA DSP block can perform two FP16 floating-point operations (FLOPs) per clock cycle. Total FLOPs for FP16 configuration is derived by multiplying 2x the maximum number of DSP blocks to be offered in a single Intel Agilex® FPGA by the maximum clock frequency that will be specified for that block.
