MitySOM-5CSx with Dual Side ConnectorsDual Cortex A9 and User Programmable FPGA SOM with Dual Side Connectors

Overview

The MitySOM-5CSx with Dual Side Connectors (MitySOM-5CSx-DSC) is an Intel/Altera Cyclone V SoC module intended for use as an image processing board.  In addition to the processor, the module includes on-board power supplies, NOR FLASH, a DDR3 RAM memory subsystem, a real time clock (RTC), micro SD card, a USB 2.0 on the go (OTG) port, and a temperature sensor.  The MitySOM-5CSx-DSC provides a complete and flexible CPU infrastructure for highly integrated embedded systems.

The MitySOM-5CSx-DSC is available with a 110KLE Cyclone V SX which provides dual-core Cortex-A9 32-bit RISC processors with dual NEON SIMD coprocessors.   This MPU can run a rich set of real-time operating systems containing software applications programming interfaces (APIs) expected by modern system designers.  The ARM architecture supports several operating systems, including Linux, Micrium uC/OS, Android and QNX.
