The Intel® Hyperflex™ FPGA Architecture introduces additional by passable registers everywhere throughout the FPGA fabric. These additional registers, called Hyper-Registers, are available on every interconnect routing segment and at the inputs of all functional blocks. Hyper-Registers enable three key design techniques to achieve the 2X core performance increase:

  • Fine grained Hyper-Retiming to eliminate critical paths.
  • Zero latency Hyper-Pipelining to eliminate routing delays.
  • Flexible Hyper-Optimization to achieve the best performance.

When you use these techniques in your design, the Hyper-Aware design tools automatically use the Hyper-Registers to achieve maximum core clock frequency.

Intel EMIB Packaging Technology for Intel® Stratix® 10 Devices

Intel’s patented Embedded Multi-Die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) technology enables effective in-package integration of system-critical components, such as analog, memory, ASICs, CPU, and so on. EMIB technology offers a simpler manufacturing flow, compared to other in-package integration technologies. Additionally, EMIB eliminates the need to use through silicon vias (TSV) and specialized interposer silicon enabling a solution that offers higher performance, less complexity, and superior signal and power integrity. EMIB uses a small silicon chip embedded in the substrate to provide ultra-high density interconnect between die. Standard Flip Chip assembly connects power and user signals from the chip to package balls. This approach minimizes interference from core switching noise and crosstalk to deliver superior signal and power integrity.

For details on the specific implementation of this technology on the upcoming Intel® Stratix® 10 device family, see the Transceivers section.

Secure Device Manager Key Benefits

User-Configurable Boot Process

With a dedicated processor managing configuration, Intel® Stratix® 10 FPGA users can control the configuration order of the core logic in the FPGA or SoC. You can also select whether the FPGA design or the processor application boots up first, and whether the first system manages the configuration control of the second. The Secure Device Manager allows greater flexibility and user-selected configuration control compared to previous-generation FPGAs and SoCs.

User-Scripted Response to SEU and Tamper Detection

You can control the FPGA or SoC responses to SEU and tamper detection, using a dedicated processor in the Secure Device Manager. Intel® Stratix® 10 devices also support user-scripted device erasure, where reactive data zeroization serves a security response.

Physically Unclonable Function for Key Protection

Intel® Stratix® 10 devices implement a Physically Unclonable Function (PUF) that provides industry leading security for bitstream encryption key protection.

Anti-Tamper Protection

Intel® Stratix® 10 devices include on-chip temperature sensors and device voltage rail monitors to detect tamper attacks on the FPGA or SoC. Additionally, the secure processor in the Secure Device Manager lets you update the configuration process. You can deploy a different configuration order or updated encryption processes in the field if a particular configuration process is found to be ineffective against the threat profile.

Advanced Key Management Schemes

Intel® Stratix® 10 devices support a complex asymmetric key authentication and authorization scheme. You can use multiple keys to authenticate a bitstream section, and you may use different keys to authenticate different bitstreams or bitstream sections. You can control the permissions of an authorized signing key, as well as revoke and replace signing keys.

Intel® Stratix® 10 devices implement an advanced bitstream encryption scheme that minimizes the amount of data encrypted by any single key. You may choose to encrypt bitstream sections with different keys or enable a key update mode that automatically rolls encryption keys within each bitstream section.

Advanced Device Management

The user and command authentication capabilities of the Secure Device Manager also enable a whole class of new secure device maintenance functions for the Intel® Stratix® 10 device family. These functions include:

  • Secure remote update (authenticated).
  • Secure return material authorization (RMA) of devices without revealing user keys.
  • Secure debug of designs and ARM* processor code.
  • Secure key management.

SEU Mitigation

Single-event upsets (SEUs) are rare, unintended changes in the state of internal memory elements caused by radiation effects. The change in state results in a soft error and there is no permanent damage to the device.

Intel® Stratix® 10 devices have intrinsically low upset rates as a result of the high SEU immunity provided by Intel's 14 nm tri-gate process. Additionally, Intel provides fine-grained capability for determining where an upset occurred in your design so you can design your system to have the appropriate response.
