Solar Express 200 (SE200) is an x8 Gen3 PCIe carrier board with two SoM-PF m(System on Module) sites. The 2 SoMs that can be supported on this carrier are SoM-PF1 and PF2 which are based on MPF500-1FCG1152 and MPF300T-1FCG784E respectively. Site 1 is typically designed for SoM-PF1 but if SoM-PF2 is plugged into that position then only PCIe, Firefly, SFP+, and 4 lanes of high-speed serial links for the FMC interface will be available. The board is designed for development purposes and plugs into a PC’s PCIe slot and is powered by a PCIe interface. An FMC slot, SFP+ module, x2 Samtec FireFly, USB, and other peripherals are available on the carrier card.

PC104P PolarFire FPGA peripheral (endpoint) board is designed for rapid application development. This is a PCIe104 TYPE 3 peripheral board with stack-up and stack-down connectors. Board can be used as End-Point in stack-up configurations only for connection to StackPC host, and stack-down connector is used for connection to an adjacent peripheral module. This board offers an HPC FMC site for adding additional features/functionalities.
SE125 is a low profile, 8 lanes PCIe card powered by the Xilinx Zynq Utrascale+ MPSOC (XCZU7EV-2FFVC1156E. Designed for Data Center application for simultaneous 4K video encode/decode4K video streaming . The onboard Zynq supports integrated H.265 hardware encoders and decoders.
Using Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC family, SE120 is an x8, Gen4 PCIe board. It can be assembled with the XCZU7EV-2FFVC1156E /XC ZU7EG/ XCZU11EG/ or ZU7CG. Depending on the choice of device it can be used for applications in HPC, digital communication, image processing, and AR/VR. When using a 7EV device the video encoder/decoder unit (VCU) can be used for video streaming applications.
SE120 utilizes the Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC family in C1156 package. SE120 is a Gen4 x8 PCIe board. It can be assembled with the XCZU7EV-2FFVC1156E /XC ZU7EG/ XCZU11EG/ or ZU7CG. Depending on the choice of FPGA it can be used for applications in HPC, digital communication, image processing, and AR/VR. By cascading multiple SE120s multiprocessing systems can be easily created.
