1. About This Kit

The Altera

Stratix

IV E FPGA Development Kit is a complete design environment

that includes both the hardware and software you need to develop Stratix IV E FPGA

designs. The board and the one-year license for the Quartus

II software provide

everything you need to begin developing custom Stratix IV E FPGA designs. The

following list describes what you can accomplish with the kit:

■ Develop and test memory subsystems consisting of DDR3, RLDRAM II, and

QDR II+ memories.

■ Build designs capable of migrating to Altera’s low-cost HardCopy

IV ASICs.

■ Take advantage of the modular and scalable design by using the high-speed

mezzanine card (HSMC) connectors to interface to over 30 different HSMCs

provided by Altera partners, supporting protocols such as Serial RapidIO

10 Gigabit Ethernet, SONET, Common Public Radio Interface (CPRI), Open Base

Station Architecture Initiative (OBSAI) and others.

■ Develop FPGAs design for cost-sensitive applications.

■ Measure the FPGA's low power consumption.

Kit Features

This section briefly describes the Stratix IV E FPGA Development Kit contents.

Hardware

The Stratix IV E FPGA Development Kit includes the following hardware:

■ Stratix IV E FPGA development board—A development platform that allows you

to develop and prototype hardware designs running on the Stratix IV E EP4SE530

FPGA.

f For detailed information about the board components and interfaces, refer

to the Stratix IV E FPGA Development Board Reference Manual.

■ HSMC loopback board—A daughtercard that allows for loopback testing all

signals on the HSMC interface using the Board Test System.

■ HSMC debug breakout board—A daughtercard that routes 40 CMOS signals to a

0.1" header and adds 20 LEDs to the remaining 40 CMOS signals.

■ Power supply and cables—The kit includes the following items:

■ Power supply and AC adapters for North America/Japan, Europe, and the

United Kingdom

■ USB cable

■ Ethernet cable
