Highly integrated and versatile advance SoC platform for easy adoption to target applications

OSKit™-A380 SoC development platform, is based on Arm Cortex-A9 processor at UMC 40nm LP process, consisting of an Arm prototype chip, A380 SoC chip. A380 has a dual-core Arm Cortex A9, and a FA626TE, with either one configurable to be the main processor, depending on customers' application requirement. It also integrates multiple high-speed interfaces including DDR3-1600, PCIE-Gen3, SRIO, SGMII, and USB2.0 (OTG), with AHB extension bus available for connection to FPGA. With a real SoC chip and FPGA, OSKit™-A380 allows the designer to verify the logic and perform real-time function verification and software development from early stage.

Furthermore, comprising the complete hardware evaluation system and software development package, OSKit™-A380 redefines what can be done to accelerate SoC development, and can fully address the fast growing demand of cloud infrastructure market, targeting the networking, computing, and storage applications.
