PolarFire SoC

Lowest Power, Multi-Core RISC-V SoC FPGA

Overview

The PolarFire^® SoC FPGA family delivers an unparalleled combination of low power consumption, thermal efficiency and defense grade security for smart, connected systems.

It's the first system on chip (SoC) field-programmable gate array (FPGA) with a deterministic, coherent RISC-V CPU cluster and a deterministic L2 memory subsystem enabling Linux and real-time applications. Built on the award-winning, mid-range, low power PolarFire FPGA Architecture, PolarFire SoC devices deliver up to 50% lower power than alternative FPGAs, span from 25k to 460k logic elements (LEs) and feature 12.7G transceivers. EEMBC CoreMark^®-Pro benchmarks chart overpower consumed illustrates the PolarFire SoC low-power advantage.

Real-Time with Linux

Safety Critical, System Control and Security applications use the flexibility that Linux offers and need Real-Time Determinism to control hardware.


Safety Critical systems	AI / ML	Industrial IoT	Robotics	Smart Weapons and UAV

Typical SMP implementations may offer the flexibility of a rich operating systems but are terrible for running real-time systems needing deterministic performance.
SMP on Quad-core Cortex-A class processor	ISR execution times vary significantly

Designing a deterministic, Linux capable SoC requires a multi-dimensional approach needing architectural innovation, a coherent memory subsystem across cores and configurable branch prediction capabilities.
PolarFire SoC features a multi-core Linux capable processor that is coherent with the memory subsystem allowing a versatile mix of deterministic real-time systems and Linux in a single multi-core CPU cluster.

PolarFire SoC enables you to create a fully deterministic real-time system alongside Linux that executes on-time every time.
