Terasic Technologies T-Core FPGA MAX 10 Development Board

Terasic T-Core FPGA MAX 10 Development Board presents a robust hardware design platform built around the Intel® MAX 10 FPGA. It is well equipped to provide cost-effective, single-chip solutions in control plane or data path applications and industry-leading programmable logic for ultimate design flexibility. With MAX 10 FPGA, you can get lower power consumption/cost and higher performance than the previous generation.

The T-Core development board includes hardware such as onboard USB-Blaster II, QSPI Flash, ADC header, WS2812B RGB LED, and 2x6 TMD expansion header. By leveraging all of these capabilities, the T-Core is the perfect solution for showcasing, evaluating, and prototyping the true potential of the Intel® MAX 10 FPGA. T-Core also supports RISC-V CPU with onboard JTAG debug. It is an ideal platform for learning RISC-V CPU design or embedded system design.
