When: Thursday, March 28, 2024 , 11:00 AM US Central Daylight Time, Duration: 1 hour

BeagleV®-Fire is a revolutionary SBC powered by Microchip’s PolarFire® SoC FPGA. It unveils new horizons for developers, tinkerers and the open-source community.

With BeagleV-Fire, BeagleBoard.org brings together the performance and capabilities of Microchip’s PolarFire SoC FPGA to the open-source community. PolarFire SoC is powered by 5x core RISC-V SoC with a power efficient, secure and reliable FPGA fabric. The device features 12.7Gbps transceivers, Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe, and more.

BeagleBoard ecosystem enables the use of several add-on capes, open-source projects and the backing of an energetic community to support PolarFire SoC FPGA based developments.

In this webinar come learn about:

  • Introduction to BeagleV-Fire
  • Supported tools and solutions
  • Demonstration of getting started with simple designs
  • Programming custom FPGA designs

Note: If you can’t attend the live webinar, be sure to still register as we’ll send you the recording afterward!
