Introduction

The Sodia evaluation board is enabling to evaluate more widely applications of ARM®Cortex®-A9 by higher extensibility with two extension connectors(HSMC). This evaluation board enables to develop the embedded system designs quickly which can bridge to the real applications.

And the Sodia is a higher model of Macnica Helio SoC Evaluation Kit (Cyclone®V SoC starter kit) and is most suitable for users who hope the expansion from Helio. Around HPS function same as Helio, and software is compatible.
