PCIe and add-in cards - Apollo

The Apollo PCIe add‑in card series provides a high‑performance hardware foundation for applications that demand extreme bandwidth, real‑time processing, and deterministic data handling. Designed around Altera and AMD FPGAs, the cards allow OEMs to offload computationally intensive workloads, implement custom logic, or stream massive data flows directly between high‑speed peripherals and the host system.

The onboard FPGAs enable real‑time pre‑processing, image correction, filtering, triggering, synchronization, or other custom algorithms to run directly on the card. This reduces CPU/GPU load, enhances throughput, and improves system responsiveness.

Across the off-the-shelf parts of the portfolio, Apollo supports multiple SFP, QSFP and CXP interfaces, enabling the cards to function as frame grabbers for complex multi‑camera setups. Processing throughput scales with interface bandwidth and FPGA resources, enabling support for advanced inspection, metrology, and imaging applications - all while maintaining low latency and high determinism.

Apollo cards integrate seamlessly into Prodrive’s broader embedded computing ecosystem - including motherboards, industrial PCs, and high‑density servers - allowing scalable deployment from single‑card systems to multi‑node clusters. Long lifecycle support ensures stability for semiconductor, medical, and industrial OEMs operating within regulated or long‑qualification environments.
