AMD through its University program has approved a donation of a Versal HBM Series VHK158 Evaluation Kit to the NCL. These new versal boards include High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) specifically targeting memory and compute demanding applications. Within the context and work of the NCL this board is planned to be used mainly in BrainFrame research.
