Intel will be transitioning to the next-generation programmable deep-learning solution based on FPGAs in order to increase the level of customization possible in FPGA deep-learning. As part of this transition, future standard releases (i.e., non-LTS releases) of Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit will no longer include the Intel® Vision Accelerator Design with an Intel® Arria® 10 FPGA and the Intel® Programmable Acceleration Card with Intel® Arria® 10 GX FPGA.

Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit 2020.3.X LTS release will continue to support Intel® Vision Accelerator Design with an Intel® Arria® 10 FPGA and the Intel® Programmable Acceleration Card with Intel® Arria® 10 GX FPGA. For questions about next-generation programmable deep-learning solutions based on FPGAs, please talk to your sales representative or contact us to get the latest FPGA updates.

For documentation for the FPGA plugin available in previous releases of Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit with FPGA Support, see documentation for the [2020.4 version](https://docs.openvinotoolkit.org/2020.4/openvino_docs_IE_DG_supported_plugins_FPGA.html) and lower.
