Is FPGA a VLSI?
FPGA in VLSI stands for ‘Field Programmable Gate Array’, which is an integrated circuit that may be programmed to execute a tailored function for a particular purpose. FPGAs have become highly popular in the VLSI area. The code for FPGA programming is written in languages like VHDL and Verilog.
What is Altera Cyclone II FPGA?
This FPGA Development board uses ALTERA CycloneII EP2C5T144 chip. The FPGA Board can easily be embedded into user’s application. Applications include from simple logic control, data acquisition, signal processing, to mathematical calculation functions. All IOs of the FPGA chip borught out on headers. Maximum clock frequency is 300 MHz.
What is the maximum input voltage for a cyclone switch?
The Cyclone datasheet specifies maximum logic input 0f 4.1Volt. We also use the on board 3.3Volt power to make 4 bit binary switch. We also use Gravitech logic level translators to help change 5V to 3.3V (shown in green in the photo).
Is there a free version of Quartus Prime Cyclone II?
Not a big deal, but it will add another $10 to the cost if you don’t already have one. 2. The last version of the free Quartus software that supports this Cyclone II is version 13.0sp1 which was last updated in 2013. It’s mainly Intel/Altera’s fault for not supporting this in the latest free version of Quartus Prime, but it is a bit annoying.
