APOLLO S10 SOM

Terasic’s Apollo S10 SOM for scalable FPGA prototyping and HPC solutions which provide up to 90x performance increase over CPUs for critical workloads.

Terasic’s Apollo S10 system on module (SOM) is designed for modular and scalable high-performance FPGA prototyping and high-performance computing (HPC) solutions. The Apollo S10 SOM packs unbeatable performance and energy efficiency into a tiny form factor. It provides up to 90x performance increase over CPUs for critical workloads such as simulation acceleration, molecular dynamics, and machine learning.

Apollo S10 SOM takes advantage of the latest Intel® Stratix® 10 SoC with 2800 K logic elements to obtain speed and power breakthrough (with up to 70% lower power). Combining several high-end hardware interfaces, such as high-capacity and high-bandwidth DDR4 SDRAM (up to 32 GB), on-board USB-Blaster™ II, and FMC/FMC+ connectors for I/O expansion, the board delivers more than 2x the performance of previous-generation development kits.
