is a comprehensive design environment with everything embedded developers need to create processing-based systems. The DE1-SoC-MTL2 delivers an integrated platform including hardware, design tools, and reference designs for developing embedded software and hardware platforms in a wide range of applications. The fully integrated kit allows developers to rapidly customize their processor and IP to best suit their specific application. The DE1-SoC-MTL2 features a DE1-SoC development board targeting Altera Cyclone® V SX SoC FPGA, as well as a capacitive LCD multimedia color touch panel which natively supports five points multi-touch and gestures.

The all-in-one embedded solution offered on the DE1-SoC-MTL2, in combination of a LCD touch panel and digital image module, provides embedded developers the ideal platform for multimedia applications with unparallel processing performance. Developers can benefitfrom the use of FPGA-based embedded processing system such as mitigating design risk and obsolescence, design reuse, lowering bill of material (BOM) costs by integrating powerful graphics engines within the FPGA.
