Reference Manual
■ Mechanical
■ PCI Express long form factor (4.376” x 10.45”)
■ 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
■ One PCI Express x8 edge connector
■ One universal HSMC expansion port (port A)
■ One USB 2.0 connector
■ One gigabit Ethernet port
■ Chip-to-Chip (C2C) bridge with 29 LVDS inputs and 29 LVDS outputs, and x8
transceivers
■ One small form factor pluggable plus (SFP+) channel
■ One SMA 6 Gbps channel
■ Memory
■ 1152-Mbyte (MB) DDR3 SDRAM with a 72-bit data bus
■ 4.5-MB QDRII+ SRAM
■ 1-Gbit (Gb) synchronous flash with a 16-bit data bus
