PCI Express chassis or bench-top operation

Dual FPGA

The development board includes two Arria V GX FPGAs that connect to other
components on the board to provide a better transceiver and bandwidth design
solution.

FPGA 1

The first FPGA device (FPGA 1) connects to the following components:

■

Communication ports

■
