|---|---|
| Overview | Intel® FPGAs offer a wide variety of configurable embedded SRAM, high-speed transceivers, high-speed I/Os, logic blocks, and routing. Built-in IP combined with outstanding software tools lower FPGA development time, power, and cost.
|
| Intel SoC FPGAs | Intel SoC FPGAs integrate an ARM*-based hard processor system (HPS) consisting of processors, peripherals, and memory interfaces with the FPGA fabric using a high-bandwidth interconnect backbone. It combines the performance and power savings of hard IP with the flexibility of programmable logic. |
| Intellectual Property Overview | The Intel FPGA IP portfolio includes a unique combination of soft and hardened IP cores along with reference designs to complement your application’s performance and IP strategies. On top of that, our straightforward selection of development kits give you the flexibility to test multiple types of platforms using a single board. |
| Intellectual Property Selector | This website allows you to select and sort IP by technology, provider, and end market. |

| New to FPGAs | FPGA is an acronym for Field Programmable Gate Array. It is a semiconductor IC where a large majority of the electrical functionality inside the device can be changed. The functionality can be changed by the design engineer, changed during the PCB assembly process, or even changed after the equipment has been shipped to customers out in the field. |
