The first utilized the custom A10PED. The main requirements were two Altera Arria 10 GX FPGAs plus a high-speed memory called Hybrid Memory Cube (HMC). For I/O, rather than QSFPs the design utilized on-board optical receivers.
Next-Gen Solution
With the success of the A10PED, BittWare was again chosen for a customized card. In this case, the base card was a newer Altera device with HBM2 memory.
One of BittWare’s standard FPGA-based products may be 95% of the way for a new system design—needing only a small customization to gain the last 5 percent of capabilities that will perfect its fit. Adjustments to I/O can often be handled easily. With BittWare, there’s a large base of standard products with FPGAs from AMD, Altera, and Achronix.
