[Domestic chip AGM AG32VF407]-01-FPGA+MCU combination unboxing [Copy link]

 

 

I received the express last night and left it at the company. I came here this morning to write a review of the unpacking. The entire board was packed intact and not squeezed, so there should be no problem.

Before unboxing, I think I should first talk about the MCU plus FPGA model. This inspiration should come from the idea of multi-core heterogeneity of chips, and then add the SOC+FPGA model of the ZYNQ series launched by Xilinx. Combining the general ARM and FPGA saves space and reduces the overall cost. Another feature is that it enhances the collaboration of colleagues. FPGA is mainly about real-time performance and complex programmable logic. It has good applications in high-speed data sampling, interface expansion, complex logic judgment, and high time accuracy. MCU+FPGA is suitable for high-speed sampling and MCU interface expansion applications, including in the application of complex logic. So there were a lot of applicants for this chip at that time.

Okay, let’s continue with our unboxing.

There are detailed technical websites and technical contact numbers on the box.

The interior contains cables, business cards, Type C interface cables, and development boards, which are also packed in anti-static bags.

The whole board includes an SD card interface, RTC, TypeC-USB interface, two indicator lights, a TFT interface, an NRF2401 wireless module interface, onboard FLASH (probably for FPGA), two user buttons, and a TTL debug serial port. Almost all IOs are brought out to facilitate further expansion.

The entire board is the size of a palm. It is a portable development board. It would be nice if it came with a box. Hahaha.

Then comes the power-on process.

When connected using the TypeC interface, one user LED is always on and the other is flashing.

Okay, that’s all for the unboxing. I’ll update later.

Sir, this is too fast!

It feels like the list was just announced two days ago, and you're already starting your review

I received the board yesterday, haha. Then I went on a business trip last time and didn’t update the review for half a month, so I took the board back.

Those who can evaluate FPGA are all experts. People like us who don’t know much about FPGA don’t dare to touch this evaluation.

I don't know FPGA either, so I basically only tested the RISC-V side.

Phone number and last name printed on the packaging? That's too fake

(Whispering) To be honest, I feel the same way...

It is probably a polished chip, and it will not be a big deal in the end.

Are there similar ones abroad? I haven't found out about it, hahahaha

This board is the same as the STM32 core board, and the PCB of this board can be searched online.

The original AGM board is not like this. The original board includes network port peripherals, 10PIN JTAG port, etc.

So, you are talking about the copycat ones...

Maybe if the seller is alone, it is normal to print his name and phone number.

At first I thought it was the original one, but after asking around, I found that many people had similar thoughts. Haha

The development board officially recommended by AGM that I have seen has more complete functions and comes with supporting routines.
