MetaMorph CPU

Hardware version of StageCore1. This processor is based on our DLX1-L FPGA micro module and can be integrated into custom hardware. The underlying StageCore1 configuration and firmware can be configured to run the application function.

With application functions usually being implemented on technologically less challenging and more cost-efficient circuit board constructions, the integration of a performat processing system usually scales disproportionate. Our CPU addresses this problem by offloading complexity to a FPGA subprint with own memory and DC-DC converters.
