Information :

	256K X 16 SRAM
	EP1S4 FPGA serial loader (FPGA and Nios II boot)
	4 Mbit serial flash
	RS-232 link

Quicgate modules also supports the specification (master or slave standard card, 128 pin), and can interface with other modules designed to that specification.  The Quicgate kit includes an FPGA programmer and power supply, and provides all the hardware items which are necessary to start designing with and evaluating the powerful features of Altera® Cyclone II FPGA devices.

Module Details :

1. Altera EP2C5 or EP2C8 Cyclone II FPGA, in –C8 speed grade.
    
2. Separate programming ports (ASMI flash interface and JTAG interface).
    
3. Reset and voltage monitor IC which provides 400mS reset pulse.
    
4. Reset push-button switch.
    
5. 110 input/output pins available.
    
6. 3 discrete indicator LED (red, yellow, green).
    
7. Clock oscillator (25 MHz).
    
8. compatible design.
    
9. EPCS4 (4Mbit) serial flash for FPGA configuration (and Nios II software).
    
10. 256K x 16 bit (4Mbit) SRAM for Nios II program execution and dynamic data storage.
     
11. One RS-232 interface.
     
12. 4 Mbit serial flash for data storage.

Quartus II Starter Design  :

1. Created using Quartus II ver. 6.0 SP1.

2. Nios II processor defined.

3. All module pins are defined in top level schematic
   project file.

4. Memory test with results indicated to LED.

5. FPGA load from EPCS4

6. Serial Flash device diagnostic

7. RS-232 port test

Note:  The starter design available for download from this website was created using Quartus II ver. 6.0 SP1.  Some user modification of the starter design may be required to support compilation under later versions of Quartus II.  Quartus II "web edition" is available for download from the Altera website.

Kit Package Contents :

1. Quicgate Cyclone II EP2C5/EP2C6 module

2. Wall mount 3.3VDC/2A switching supply

3. Altera ByteBlaster II FPGA programmer
   (USB blaster kit also available).
