The DE25-Nano is a next-generation FPGA development board that brings Agilex™ 5 performance into the palm of your hand. Building upon the widespread adoption of the DE10-Nano, the DE25-Nano upgrades nearly every dimension: from a 138K-LE Agilex™ 5 FPGA, onboard 2GB LPDDR4, and USB-Blaster III, to an enhanced dual-cluster ARM Cortex-A76/A55 HPS architecture — all while maintaining the same compact form factor. Whether you're developing AI models, vision pipelines, or control systems, the DE25-Nano offers a modern hardware foundation for real-time processing at the edge.
What truly sets the DE25-Nano apart is its versatile I/O and production-ready architecture — with support for HDMI, MIPI, ADC, GPIO, and shared HPS/FPGA memory. This makes it not only a powerful dev kit for rapid prototyping, but also a reliable hardware platform ready to be adopted in real-world applications — from embedded vision, robotics to signal processing and edge analytics. Paired with Terasic’s rich ecosystem of daughter cards, the DE25-Nano enables fast iteration and scalable deployment across industries — bridging the gap between development and production, education and enterprise.
