Components and Interfaces
This section describes the development board's communication ports and interface
cards relative to the Cyclone V SoC device. The development board supports the
following communication ports:
■
PCI Express
■
10/100/1000 Ethernet (HPS)
■
10/100 Ethernet (FPGA)
■
HSMC
■
RS-232 Serial UART (HPS)
■
CAN bus (HPS)
■
Real-Time clock (HPS)
■
SPI master

PCI Express
The PCI Express interface on the development board supports auto-negotiating
channel width from ×1 to ×4 as well as the connection speed of Gen1 at 2.5 Gbps/lane
for a maximum of 10 Gbps bandwidth.
The PCIE_REFCLK_P/N signal is a 100-MHz differential input that is driven to the
daughter card through the PCI Express edge connector. This signal connects directly
to a Cyclone V SoC REFCLK input pin pair using DC coupling. The I/O standard is
High-Speed Current Steering Logic (HCSL).
