Using the Reference Design
SLP-50 Anti-Aliasing Filter
The SLP-50 anti-aliasing filter from Mini-Circuits provides a 55-MHz
cut-off frequency. To use the anti-aliasing filter, connect one end of the
filter to one of the digital-to analog connectors on the Stratix EP1S25
development board or the Stratix EP1S80 development board (D/A1 or
D/A2). Connect the other end of the filter to the SMA cable. You can
perform an external loopback from the D/A converter to one of the A/D
converters by connecting the other end of the SMA cable to one of the
A/D connectors on the board (A/D1 or A/D2).
Power Supply Cable
Connect the power cable to the Stratix EP1S25 development board or the
Stratix EP1S80 development board 5.0-V Power Supply Connector (J1)
and plug the other end into a power outlet.
Figure 2–4 illustrates this for
the Stratix EP1S25 development board.
After the board powers up, the on-board flash, which is shipped
pre-programmed with a filtering design, automatically configures the
Stratix device. The conf_done LED (D5) turns on, signifying that the
Stratix device is configured.
Using the
Reference
Design Altera provides a filtering reference design with the DSP Development Kit,
Stratix Edition and the DSP Development Kit, Stratix Professional Edition to
help you get started building applications.
DSP Filtering Reference Design —The DSP Development Kit, Stratix
Edition and the DSP Development Kit, Stratix Professional Edition filtering
reference design shows you how to use DSP Builder for system design,
simulation, and board-level verification. DSP Builder is a digital signal
processing development tool that interfaces The MathWorks
industry-leading system-level DSP tool Simulink with the Quartus II
software. DSP Builder provides a seamless design flow in which you can
perform algorithmic design and system integration in the MATLAB and
Simulink software and then port the design to HDL files for use in the
Quartus II software.
