Altera University Program—Example Systems
Altera provides two types of examples: Computer system examples and hardware examples. The computer systems were created using the SOPC Builder software, Nios® II embedded processor and the University Program intellectual property (IP) cores. These systems can be used to teach computer organization, without requiring the students to have knowledge in HDL design. Also, they can be used as a starting point for your own tailor-made projects. The hardware examples were created to demonstrate how to use one or more of the peripherals on the development and education boards.
