Developers who want to implement low cost industrial communications solutions rapidly can now utilise the DBC1C12 evaluation board from EBV Elektronik.
The board incorporates Altera's low-cost Cyclone EP1C12 FPGA and an evaluation version of the Nios II embedded processor core, delivering the necessary resources to quickly develop complex industrial and communications solutions. The evaluation board also has sufficient resources to save programs and data: 16 MB of SDRAM (32 bits) and 8 MB of flash memory (16 bits).
The evaluation board includes a number of serial interfaces for communication with other system components, including 10/100 Mbit Ethernet, RS232 and RS485, as well as CAN- and I²C interfaces. Customised interfaces or expansion cards can be connected to the evaluation board via two pin headers with 12 I/O connections each.
To make it easier to develop customised system solutions, EBV offers several Nios II reference designs with the evaluation board. These currently include a Web-server application based on the OpenCore Ethernet MAC Core and a CAN controller, with more to follow. The reference designs show how to easily implement SoPC (system on a programmable chip) designs.
The package includes: Quartus II Web Edition, including SOPC Builder and Nios II Evaluation tools. The DBC1C12 evaluation board is 80 x 80 mm in size and is delivered with the Byteblaster II programming adapter, and a 220 V mains adapter.
