and offers up to 2.5 times the performance of previous generations. With 138,000 logic elements, the platform combines high-performance FPGA fabric with an Arm-based hard processor system, making it suitable for a wide range of digital logic, embedded systems, and robotics applications.
Key technical specifications
The kit includes 1 GB of DDR4 memory with a 32-bit data bus, 64 MB of SDRAM, an 8-channel ADC header, GPIO header, high-speed HSMC connector, and mini LCD modules in black and white and color.
Regarding multimedia and viewing interfaces, the DE25-Standard integrates an HDMI output port compatible with 1080p resolution, a two-lane MIPI CSI/DSI connector for camera and display, and a composite RCA socket for surveillance video.
These capabilities, combined with the AI tensor block integrated into the Agilex 5 FPGA, allow developers to build advanced solutions for video processing, computer vision, and intelligent surveillance.
The board also features an accelerometer (G-sensor), a 128×64 pixel monochrome LCD screen, user switches, pushbuttons, LEDs and six seven-segment displays, with compact dimensions of 166 × 130 mm.
The kit includes a free license for Quartus® Pro Edition software, eliminating the need to purchase any additional licenses. This allows developers to take full advantage of Quartus Pro's design and build capabilities right out of the box. Resources such as the system CD, reference designs, and the Quartus golden_top project are also available for download from the Terasic website.
