Hydra (ALTHYDRAC5GX) is an I/O companion board for Renesas Electronics Corporation's 2nd generation SoC "R-Car H2" for car infotainment.
Equipped with an automotive temperature grade Cyclone® V GX FPGA that can achieve low power consumption and optimal performance at a minimum system cost, it has the expandability to complement the interfaces and functions of car infotainment SoCs. platform.
In addition, by using a video interface cable, LVDS daughter card, and configuration board that can be connected to the Renesas "R-Car H2" board, it is possible to expand the video input and verify various interfaces. Become.
It is also possible to evaluate FPGA with this development kit alone.
