IntroductionIntroduction

Introduction

Thank you for purchasing our product.

EDA-004 is an evaluation board equipped with Altera FPGA, power circuit, reset

circuit, crystal, MRAM and configuration device.

FTDI’s FT2232H is mounted for USB interface. Its channel A is assigned for user

communication interface, and FTDI’s virtual COM port and direct driver are

available.

Its channel B is assigned for FPGA configuration. By using our original

programming software, it is possible to configure the FPGA and program the EPCS

Memory. This feature does not require Altera’s programming software and any

download cables.

EDA-004 can provide you very convenient and easy-to-use environment.

* The explanations and screenshots given in this manual are based on QuartusII Ver. 10.1.

Power Supply

This board operates from external 5.0V input. You can use external 5.0V input from

CNA and CNB. The external power supply should be sufficient and stabilized.

FT2232H operates in self-power mode.

Please note that you can not use USB Bus power.

Internally required 3.3V, 2.5V and 1.2V are generated by on-boarded regulators.
