Intel FPGA DSN Partner

NovTech’s experience and expertise with the Intel Cyclone V SoC Offers OEMs a path to reduce design three times while maximizing The performance and feature benefits of the chip.

NovTech offerings for the Intel® Cyclone® V System of Chip (SoC) FPGA include evaluation boards, System on Modules (SoMs), design services and product trainings. Off-the-shelf modules NOVSOM® and boards NOVPEK™ accelerate time to market by using a readily available bootable SoM that allows OEMs to focus their efforts on adding their own intellectual property (IP). The NOVPEK™ product offers options to monitor each power rail of the SoC, control I/O bank voltages, access all IOMUX/BANK lines, and implement each dedicated processor function on the platform evaluation kit NOVPEK™.

Off-the-Shelf Offerings

NovTech’s offerings for Intel® Cyclone® V FPGAs include two options - a fully featured CV series, and a low-cost CVLite (CVL) series. Both offerings include evaluation kits NOVPEK™ and fully configurable SoMs NOVSOM®.
