PolarFire® SoC Discovery Kit

Microchip's PolarFire system on chip (SoC) Discovery Kit has a powerful hardware platform for RISC-V applications and FPGA logic testing

Image of Microchip's PolarFire® SoC Discovery KitMicrochip's open-source development kit includes a quad-core, 64-bit CPU cluster based on the RISC-V application-class processor. It supports Linux® and real-time applications and features a rich set of peripherals along with 95K low-power, high-performance FPGA logic elements. The kit is designed for rapid application testing on an easy-to-use hardware development platform. It provides a MikroBUS™ expansion header for Click boards™, a 40-pin Raspberry Pi™ connector, and a MIPI® video connector. The expansion boards can be controlled using protocols like I2C and SPI. The kit offers 1 GB of DDR4 memory and a microSD® card slot for booting Linux. Communication interfaces include a Gigabit Ethernet connector and three UART connections via the USB Type-C® connector. An on-board FlashPro5 programmer facilitates programming and debugging of the PolarFire FPGA through the USB-to-JTAG channel.
