Introduction of the HSMC-DVI
The Terasic HSMC-DVI is a DVI transmitter/receiver board with a High Speed Mezzanine
Connector (HSMC) interface. It is designed to allow developers to access high quality and high
resolution video signals in their FPGA. It gives the flexibility required in high resolution image
processing systems by combining both the DVI transmitter and receiver onto the same card. Lastly,
the HSMC-DVI daughter board can be connected to any HSMC interface host boards.
