For information on setting up and powering up the Cyclone II DSP
development board and installing the included software, refer to the
DSP Development Kit, Cyclone II Edition Getting Started User Guide.
Features
Overview The Cyclone II DSP development board is included in the
DSP Development Kit, Cyclone II Edition (ordering code DK-DSP-2C70N).
The Cyclone II DSP development board provides a low-cost hardware
platform for developing high performance DSP designs based on Altera
®
Cyclone II FPGA devices. The DSP Development Kit, Cyclone II Edition
features the EP2C70F672 FPGA.
