AGRW014

AlteraAgilex 9 Direct RF

The AGRW014 is an Agilex 9 Direct RF SoC FPGA from Altera, built on the Intel 7 process. It provides 487,200 adaptive logic modules (ALMs) (1,437,240 logic elements (LEs)), 1,948,800 flip-flops, 139 Mb of block RAM and 4,510 variable-precision DSP blocks. Its processing system includes four Arm Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 1.41 GHz. The programmable logic offers up to 434 user I/O pins and 16 XCVR transceivers at up to 58 Gb/s, with hard PCI Express Gen4 x16 blocks. It comes in a single package, the 1774B (32 × 45 mm). Designs are built with Altera Quartus Prime.
