FPGA list procurement

Hello,

I am looking for a FPGA board with a hardened quad core microprocessor. I do not want to spend the $1,000's on a board. Are there any boards that fit in these parameters?

Thank you,

Drew

    Hi,

    Here are some affordable Intel/Altera FPGA boards, though it's difficult to find one with a hardened quad-core processor for under $1,000:

    Terasic DE10-Nano: Features a Cyclone V SoC with a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9, costing less than $300.

    Arrow DECA: Uses a MAX 10 FPGA with an ARM Cortex-M3, priced under $150.

    Intel Arria 10 SoC: Includes a dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 and may be available for under $1,000 if purchased used or refurbished.

    For a quad-core processor, you may need to explore second-hand markets or consider dual-core options for cost savings.

    Regards,

    Fakhrul
