1. Overview

Introduction

This document describes the hardware features of the Cyclone

III LS FPGA

development board, including the detailed pin-out and component reference

information required to create custom FPGA designs that interface with all

components of the board.

General Description

The Cyclone III LS FPGA development board provides a hardware platform for

developing and prototyping low-power, secure, high-volume, feature-rich designs as

well as to demonstrate the Cyclone III LS device's on-chip memory, embedded

multipliers, and the Nios

II embedded soft processor. The board provides a wide

range of peripherals and memory interfaces to facilitate the development of the

Cyclone III LS FPGA designs.

Two high-speed mezzanine card (HSMC) connectors are available to add additional

functionality via a variety of HSMCs available from Altera

and various partners.

f To see a list of the latest HSMCs available or to download a copy of the HSMC

specification, refer to the Development Board Daughtercards page of the Altera

website (www.altera.com).

The Cyclone III LS FPGAs are the first to offer a suite of security features at the silicon,

software, and intellectual property (IP) level on a low-power, high-functionality

FPGA. This suite of security features protects your IP from tampering, reverse

engineering, and cloning. Additionally, these devices enable you to introduce

redundancy in a single chip using design separation, which in turn reduces the size,

weight, and power of your applications.

The Cyclone III LS FPGA development board is especially suitable for low-power,

secure, logic-rich applications that require stringent signal and power integrity

solutions.

f For more information on the following topics, refer to the respective documents:

■ Cyclone III device family, refer to the Cyclone III Device Handbook.

■ Cyclone III LS security features, refer to the Partitioning FPGA Designs for

Redundancy and Information Security Webcast page of the Altera website.

■ HSMC Specification, refer to the High Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) Specification.

Configuration, Status, and Setup Elements

This section describes the board's configuration, status, and setup elements.

Configuration

This section describes the FPGA, flash memory, and MAX

II CPLD EPM2210 System

Controller device programming methods supported by the Cyclone III LS FPGA

development board. The Cyclone III LS FPGA development board supports the

following three configuration methods:

■ Embedded USB-Blaster is the default method for configuring the FPGA at any

time using the Quartus II Programmer in JTAG mode with the supplied USB cable.

■ Flash memory download is used for storing FPGA images which the MAX

CPLD EPM2210 System Controller uses to configure the Cyclone III LS device

either on board power up or after the the PGM configure push-button switch (S8)

is pressed.

■ External USB-Blaster for configuring the FPGA using an external USB-Blaster.

FPGA Programming over Embedded USB-Blaster

The USB-Blaster is implemented using a USB Type-B connector (J4), a FTDI USB 2.0

PHY device (U11), and an Altera MAX IIZ CPLD (U13). This allows the configuration

of the FPGA using a USB cable directly connected between the USB port on the board

(J4) and a USB port of a PC running the Quartus II software. The JTAG chain is

normally mastered by the embedded USB-Blaster found in the MAX

IIZ CPLD

EPM240Z.

The embedded USB-Blaster is automatically disabled when an external USB-Blaster is

connected to the JTAG chain.

Figure 2–4 illustrates the JTAG chain.

2–12 Chapter 2: Board Components

Configuration, Status, and Setup Elements

For normal JTAG operation, the shunt jumper must be removed from the

JTAG_AT_SEL jumper (J12). To connect a device or interface to the chain, the

corresponding shunt must be installed onto the JTAG chain header (J11). Remove all

of the shunt jumpers to only have the FPGA in the chain.

The MAX

II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller must be in the chain to use the power

monitor or the Board Test System. For this setting, install the upper-most jumper

shunt onto the JTAG chain header (J11).

When a shunt is installed on the JTAG_AT_SEL jumper (J12), the default JTAG chain

breaks and the MAX II EPM2210 System Controller gains control of the FPGA JTAG.
