Cyclone III Development Board
Type
SMA connector that allows the provision of an external clock
input.
SMA connector that allows the provision of an external clock
output.
Four 1.8 V push-button switches for user-defined, logic inputs.
One 1.8 V push-button switch for FPGA logic and CPU reset.
Two 1.8 V push-button switches that control FPGA
configuration from flash memory.
Eight user-defined LEDs.
Rotary switch to select which FPGA configuration file to use in
flash memory.
Power rail select for on-board power monitor.
User-defined, green 7-segment display
14-pin LCD display
30-position dot matrix graphics LCD display
64 MB of flash memory with a 16-bit data bus
The SRAM devices connect to the MAX II device as well as the
flash memory device.
Four x16 devices and a single x8 device.
USB device that provides JTAG programming of on-board
devices, including the Cyclone III device and flash memory
device.
The RF-45 jack is for Ethernet cable connection. The connector
is fed by a 10/100/1000 base T PHY device with an RGMII
interface to the Cyclone III device.
HSMC daughter cards.
14-20 V DC power source.
Switches the board's power on and off.
