MAXII-Evalboard: MAXII-Evalboard Details Name: maxii-evalboard Created: 15-Jun-2005 01:15:59 Updated: 26-Jun-2005 11:01:58 CVS: no files in cvs Other project properties Category :: Prototype board Language :: VHDL Phaze :: Design done Development status :: Production/Stable Project maintainers Heiko Kuester Statistics view Description The MAXII-Evalboard is a small and simple board for learning VHDL und testing the own VHDL-codes on a real CPLD-hardware. For the first steps the beginner has 4 switches and a 2 digit LED-display to create and test simple functions. Later the advancer can realize a small graphical display with 10x7 LED-pixel with a time multiplex control and a communication link via a USB-UART-Connection to a PC. To expand the MAXII-Evalboard with a additionally hardware all pins of the CPLD are routed to pin contact strip. The MAXII-Evalboard based on the Altera EPM570T100 CPLD and includes the JTAG-programming cable to program the CPLD via the LPT-Port. The board is powered by the USB-port of the PC. Features * Altera EPM570T100 CPLD * 2-digit LED-matrix display * 4 user-switches + reset * Data-connection to PC via USB-UART FTDI FT232BM-chip * Integrated JTAG-programming cable to LPT-port * Wire-wrap connector to expand with additionally own hardware * Power-supply via USB * 6 MHz quarz clock * 1 kHz RC-oscillator * 2-layer PCB 83,2 x 61 mm Status The board is in a final state V1.0 and is mostly tested Following design files are available: * Protel-design-files * Gerber-files to order PCBs * Schematics, PCB-Prints in PDF-format * Bill of materials Quartus II design-samples to test the board are coming sonn MAXII-Evalboard MAXII-Evalboard with cables
