Terasic Technologies Apollo S10 SoM Developer Kit

Terasic Technologies Apollo S10 SoM Developer Kit is designed for modular and scalable high-performance FPGA prototyping and HPC solutions. The included Apollo S10 SoM (System on Module), based on the Intel® Stratix® 10 SoC (System on Chip), offers speed, breakthrough computing power, and low power consumption. The Apollo S10 SoM also includes a number of high-end hardware interfaces such as high-capacity and high-bandwidth DDR4 SDRAM (up to 64GB), on-board USB-Blaster II, and FMC/FMC+ connectors for I/O expansion. The Apollo S10 Carrier Board included in the Developer Kit features two ultra-low-latency QSFP+ connectors for 40G Ethernet and Thunderbolt™ 3, enabling developers to evaluate the I/O planned for their systems, and build their custom systems around it.
