General Description

This manual provides information about the hardware features of the serial digital
interface (SDI) high-speed mezzanine card (HSMC). You can use the SDI HSMC to
design and implement SDI and Audio Engineering Society (AES) systems based on
transceiver-supported host boards with HSMC interfaces. Altera
transceiver supported host boards with high speed serial HSMC interfaces, including
the Stratix II
This manual includes detailed pinout information that enables you to create custom
FPGA designs on host adapters with HSMC interfaces.
