Terasic Technologies Comet A65 System-On-Module (SOM)
Terasic Comet A65 System-On-Module (SOM) is powered by Altera’s large Agilex® 5 System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA with 656K logic elements. The SOM integrates an HPS/ARM subsystem, two high-speed SEAM8 extension connectors, and three 4GB high-throughput LPDDR4, supporting 71 LVDS, 245 LVCMOS, and 24 transceivers. The Terasic Comet A65 SOM enables embedded software/systems developers without FPGA expertise to develop various industrial applications, such as robotics, medical equipment, industrial communication/control, machine vision, smart cameras, and smart cities.
