| DBF3C120 |
The DBF3C120 is a Cyclone® III FPGA-based reference design platform that brings enhanced design flexibility to a broad range of applications requiring high processing power combined with high-level integration. As part of the EBV SnakeBytes reference design, the DBF3C120 complements the Altera® Stratix® II FPGA-based DBF2S30 board, which is already part of the SnakeBytes family. |
Cyclone III | |
| MercuryCode |
The EBV MercuryCode reference design platform is based on the Altera Cyclone III FPGA technology and is dedicated to industrial communications. The board is designed specifically for the use of the Nios® II processor and the Microsoft .NET Framework supporting a number of industrial I/O standards such as CAN, RS485, RS232, and 24-V I/O for direct connection to the industrial automation world. |
Cyclone III | |
| BDK2C35 | A broadcast development kit based on Altera's Nios II embedded processor and low-cost Cyclone II FPGA family. The kit includes basic audio/visual (A/V)and IT interface building blocks required to build professional broadcast systems on an FPGA platform while offering extensive customization options via a comprehensive range of add-on cards. | Cyclone II | |
| DBC2C20 | An FPGA-based development board designed specifically for Altera's Nios II embedded processors and the .NET Framework in the industrial market. The board features a Cyclone II device and is equipped with several industrial I/O standards, such as CAN, RS485, RS232, and 24-V I/O, for direct connection to the industrial automation world. Several intellectual property (IP) cores are delivered with the board, including Ethernet MAC, CAN Controller (evaluation), and USB Controller (evaluation). | Cyclone II | |
| DB1270-144 | A low-cost MAX® II CPLD development board, providing a hardware platform for a wide range of applications. | ||
| DB1C6-144 | A low-cost Cyclone FPGA development board, providing a hardware platform for a wide range of applications. | Cyclone | |
| DB2C5-144 | This Cyclone II FPGA board provides an entry point into Altera's current FPGA technology. Three LVDS input channels and output channels are available for high-speed communication with other modules. The available I/O pins are connected with plugs on the underside of the board. | Cyclone II | |
| DB3128-100 | A low-cost MAX 3000A CPLD development board with 128 macrocells, providing an easy entry point into Altera's CPLD technology. | MAX 3000A | |
| DB3256-144 | A low-cost MAX 3000A CPLD development board with 256 macrocells, providing an easy entry point into Altera's CPLD technology. | MAX 3000A | |
| DBMAXLED | Demonstrates that a single MAX II EPM1270 device can drive a large number of PWM channels. The reference design uses one PWM output for each LED color, so three PWM outputs are required for one RGB LED. The reference board is equipped with an array of 5x5 LEDs, in total 75 PWM channels to control the entire color range. | MAX II | |
| DBGIG1 | Gigabit Ethernet PHY module featuring an NSC DP83865 GigPHYTER chip. Add-on board for all Altera Nios embedded processor development boards providing a 10, 100, and 1,000-Mbps PHY interface. | Daughtercard | |
