KD240 Kria™ Drives Starter Kit

The AMD kit is targeted for motor control and DSP applications

Image of AMD's KD240 Driver Starter KitThe AMD Kria KD240 drives starter kit is a K24 SOM-based development platform that focuses on ease-of-use and is supported through a variety of pre-built accelerated applications, enabling fast and easy motor control application development.

Developers can benefit with greater flexibility from Ubuntu support and PYNQ-based development flows on an FPGA-based platform. With the hardware and software development requirements simplified, users can get multiple target applications running without prior FPGA experience.
