FPGAs for the Intelligent Edge

Edge computing demands strict power and footprint requirements with extreme reliability requirements

Microchip FPGAs present a cost-optimized and powerful platform for meeting the following edge computing requirements for intelligent vision systems:

  1. Power efficiency with two times more performance per watt
  2. Smaller form-factors as small as 11 × 11 mm
  3. Exceptional reliability with zero configuration upsets
  4. Military-grade security with cyber and anti-tamper security

Microchip’s Mi-V Ecosystem

Mi-V, pronounced “my five,” is Microchip’s continuously expanding, comprehensive suite of tools and design resources that have been developed with numerous third parties to support RISC-V designs. The Mi-V ecosystem aims to increase adoption of the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) and our System on Chip (SoC) FPGA and RISC-V soft CPU portfolio.

The Mi-V ecosystem supports development using their RISC-V SoC FPGAs and soft CPUs.
