Designing with Agilex 5 SoC

Course Objectives

This 4-days course provides all necessary know-how for hardware engineers that would like to design with Agilex 5 SoC FPGA.
The training adds a rich set of hands-on labs to provide the attendee to experience with the device either on EVB or just with FPGA design software. 
Altera Agilex 5 Family provides midrange FPGAs offering world-class features and capabilities that address design challenges across various markets.

The training starts by introducing the Agilex 5 FPGAs architecture (I/O, DSP, RAM, PLLs, etc.), it´s 2nd generation Hyperflex architecture, and the Quartus Prime Pro design software for Agilex 5. 

The training continues by teaching how to implement high-speed external memory interfaces, high speed serial interfaces, PCIe and Ethernet (with TSN). 

Next, the Hard Processor Subsystem (HPS) is covered with Cortex-A76 and Cortex-A55, along with their peripherals, NoC architecture, design considerations and debug capabilities. 

The training ends with the Agilex 5 security features and functional safety. An optional extension available is the FPGA AI suite for Agilex 5 and the design flow for AI.
