Operating systems enable you to take full advantage of processor capabilities and can also improve development speed. A number of third party operating systems are available for Intel SoC FPGAs.

Operating systems enable you to take full advantage of processor capabilities and can also improve development speed. A number of third party operating systems are available for Intel Nios II soft IP processors.

Intel FPGA SDK for OpenCL enables software developers to accelerate their applications by targeting heterogeneous platforms with Intel CPUs and FPGAs.

The Nios II soft processor adds flexibility to all Intel® FPGA designs.
