Lowest-Power, Multi-Core RISC-V SoC FPGAs


The PolarFire® SoC FPGA family delivers a combination of low power consumption, thermal efficiency and defense-grade security for smart, connected systems. It is the first System-on-Chip (SoC) FPGA with a deterministic, coherent RISC-V CPU cluster and a deterministic L2 memory subsystem for creating Linux® and real-time applications. PolarFire SoC FPGAs span from 25K to 460K Logic Elements (LEs) and feature 12.7 Gbps transceivers.

Lowest-Power SoC FPGAs


This graph of the EEMBC CoreMark-Pro benchmarks over power consumed illustrates the PolarFire SoC FPGA's low-power advantage. 

Built on the award-winning, mid-range, low-power PolarFire FPGA architecture, PolarFire SoC delivers up to 50% lower power than comparable FPGAs. 

At 1.3W, PolarFire SoC FPGAs deliver 6,500 CoreMarks while competing SoC FPGAs deliver 0 CoreMarks. PolarFire SoC FPGAs consume 55% lower power at 8,000 CoreMarks.

PolarFire SoC FPGAs Enable Deterministic Asymetric Multiprocessing (AMP) Linux® Applications


Safety-critical systems, system control and security applications need the flexibility of the Linux Operating System (OS) and the determinism of real-time systems to control hardware. Typical Symmetric Multiprocessing (SMP) implementations may offer the flexibility of a rich operating system but are terrible for running real-time systems needing deterministic performance.

SMP on Arm® Cortex®-A Class Processor

ISR Execution Times Vary Significantly

PolarFire SoC FPGAs feature a multi-core Linux-capable processor that is coherent with the memory subsystem, allowing a versatile mix of deterministic real-time systems and the Linux OS in a single multi-core CPU cluster. PolarFire SoC FPGAs create high-performance and hard real-time systems.

High-Performance Real-Time Applications


PolarFire SoC FPGAs enable AMP systems that can run a real-time application at maximum performance while also running the Linux OS. This solution offers a high-performing system that is not fully deterministic.

Hard Real-Time AMP


PolarFire SoC FPGAs also enable fully deterministic real-time applications alongside the Linux OS that execute on time, every time.

Hard Real-Time AMP on PolarFire® SoC FPGAs

ISR Execution Is Deterministic

Defense-Grade Security for the Internet of Things


Security starts during silicon manufacturing and continues through system deployment and operations. Our PolarFire SoC FPGAs represent the industry’s most advanced secure, programmable FPGAs for the latest Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
