Intel Corporation has announced the Intel Cyclone 10 family – Cyclone 10 GX and Cyclone 10 LP – of field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs).
Cyclone 10 GX can support 10G transceivers and hard floating point DSP. The architectural innovation in the implementation of IEEE 754 single-precision hardened floating-point DSP blocks can enable processing rates up to 134 GFLOPs. Markets for Intel Cyclone 10 GX include those where high I/O performance and core speed are key requirements. Uses include industrial machine vision and smart city applications that provide surveillance in parking lots, on roads and on bridges. Cyclone 10 GX is also well-suited to support pro AV technologies, such as video streaming applications. Cyclone 10 GX FPGAs enable cost-savings when using motors and drives, power assembly, computer numerical control (CNC), machine tools and robotics.
The Intel Cyclone 10 LP is a solution for applications where cost and power are key factors in the design decision. These systems typically use FPGA densities that are sub 75K LE and chip-to-chip bridging functions between electronic components or I/O expansion for microprocessors.
Cyclone 10 LP can also be used for automotive video processing used in rear-view cameras and in sensor fusion.
The Cyclone 10 FPGA family will be available in the second half of 2017.
