Mars AX3
SO-DIMM form-factor Artix 7 FPGA module for low-cost SoPC, DSP and high-speed communications.
Overview
Mars AX3 is a low-cost FPGA module built around the AMD Artix 7. The SO-DIMM form factor keeps cost down while bringing FPGA logic, high-speed communication and DSP capability into your product.
With 108 user I/O the module is compact yet still brings out everything most designs need. Industrial temperature grade is available alongside commercial, so it can be deployed outdoors or in vehicles.
Positive ONE Group supports Mars AX3 end to end: choosing the right option, arranging evaluation kits, helping you obtain reference designs and reference firmware, and supply and long-term availability in volume production. We work in English and Japanese.
