Description

The SoM3-MPFx00 is a small footprint System On Module (SoM) with 40x50mm dimensions. It has a low power, highly secure FPGA from the PolarFire family from Microsemi. It comes with 4GB of DDR4 memory, Ethernet PHY, and FLASH. This SoM is ideal for being used in complex hardware designs, and is compatible with Sundance SoM carriers SE215 and EMC2-DP-V2.

SoM3 is by default populated with MPF300T-1FCVG484 device but can be optionally built with MPF100T, 0r 200T in the same package for reducing cost. With any of the options the module provides many IOs and 4 high speed transceivers.

Simplify your complex design and reduce time-to-market of your products by dropping in an SOM module as a component in the design. SoM3 is a System On Module using the powerful, low power and highly secure PolarFire FPGA from Microsemi. It is based on the PolarFire FPGA MP300T in FCVG484 package speed grade 1. The module is compatible with some SoMs from Trenz and can be plugged to Sundance SE215 PCIe carrier, or EMC2-DP PCIe104 card, or suitable Trenz SOM carrier cards. Module is particularly suitable for applications needing high security and where low power and small space is required. This SOM has a small footprint of 40x50mm. PolarFire FPGAs offer design security with transceivers, low power transceiver devices, data security with transceivers, and low power data security with transceiver devices. All PolarFire FPGAs are integrated with multi-protocol industry-leading low-power transceivers. Low power (L) devices provide up to 35% lower static power. Also, data security (S) devices have an integrated DPA safe crypto accelerator. PolarFire Devices are currently offered in Extended Commercial (0ºC to 100ºC) and Industrial (–40ºC to 100ºC) device offerings. The Libero SoC PolarFire Design Suite delivers many soft IP cores, including a RISC-V processor, Data Security, Ethernet, DES encryption, error detection and correction, and more. This helps kick start many development projects and reduces time to market.
