1. Overview
This document describes the hardware features of the Cyclone
®
V SoC development
board, including the detailed pin-out and component reference information required
to create custom FPGA designs that interface with all components of the board.
General Description
The Cyclone V SoC development board provides a hardware platform for developing
and prototyping low-power, high-performance, and logic-intensive designs using
Altera’s Cyclone V SoC. The board provides a wide range of peripherals and memory
interfaces to facilitate the development of Cyclone V SoC designs.
One high-speed mezzanine card (HSMC) connector is available to add additional
functionality via a variety of HSMCs available from Altera
®
and various partners.
