Andromeda PE5

Base Board for Andromeda SoC Modules

Overview

The Andromeda PE5 is a versatile base board equipped with a multitude of I/O interfaces for use with the Andromeda family of SoC modules, providing a head start for building custom SoC based hardware systems. The board is equally well suited for rapid prototyping and for building FPGA systems without designing custom hardware.

Highlights

Compatible with all Andromeda SoC modules except RFSoC modules
Offers PCIe x8, 2 x USB Type-C 3.0
QSFP28/SFP28 interfaces for high-speed communication applications
Suitable for prototype to series production
170 x 111.15 mm with PCIe x8 edge connector
Can also be used as a standalone board (not as PCIe card)
