About This Kit
Kit Contents The Stratix DSP development kits include:
■ The Stratix EP1S25 DSP development board or the Stratix EP1S80
DSP development board
—The Stratix EP1S25 development board
and the Stratix EP1S80 DSP development board are prototyping
platforms that provide system designers with a solution for DSP
designs. Key features of the boards include a Stratix EP1S25 or
EP1S80 device, high-speed analog-to-digital (A/D) and
digital-to-analog (D/A) converters, and connectors for Texas
Instruments and Analog Devices evaluation boards.

■ DSP Builder version 2.2.1 (DSP system-level design tool that
interfaces the Quartus
® II software and the MATLAB/Simulink
software) —DSP system design in Altera ® devices requires both
high-level algorithms and hardware description language (HDL)
development tools. Altera’s DSP Builder integrates these tools by
combining the algorithm development, simulation, and verification
capabilities of The MathWorks MATLAB/Simulink system-level
design tools with HDL synthesis, simulation, and Altera
development tools. DSP Builder shortens DSP design cycles by
helping you create the hardware representation of a DSP design in an
algorithm-friendly development environment. DSP Builder allows
system, algorithm, and hardware designers to share a common
development platform. See the DSP Builder User Guide for more
information.
■ Quartus II Software Development Kit Edition (DKE) version 4.2 —
The Quartus II software development kit provides a comprehensive
environment for SOPC design. The Quartus II software integrates
into nearly any design environment, with interfaces to
industry-standard EDA tools.
