Stratix II GX EP2SGX90 Transceiver Signal Integrity Development Board May 2006
General Description
Board Component Blocks
The board provides the following major component blocks:
■ Flexible clock management system
● Four high-speed clock oscillators to support a variety of
protocols:
• 156.25 MHz
• 25, 100, 125, and 200-MHz from the clock generator
• 50 MHz
● SMA connectors for clock input and output
■ High-speed I/O & SMA connectors
● SMA connectors for high-speed interfaces
● Six channels of transmit differential output and six channels of
receive differential input at up to 6.375 Gbps
■ Power-supply management
● 5-V, 3.3-V, and 1.2-V switching regulators
● 3.3-V and 1.5-V/1.2-V linear regulators
■ USB interface
● Operates like a COM port on a host PC
● Eliminates the need for:
• Full USB software and hardware implementation
• USB software driver
■ General user-interface
● Debugging header
● LEDs
● 7-Segment LEDs
● Push-buttons
● DIP switches
■ Thermal management
■ Flash memory
● 56-pin TSOP package
● Compliant with common Flash interface (CFI)
● Reduces development time when used with the Altera SOPC
Builder CFI controller module
■ FPGA configuration
● JTAG interface header
● Active serial configuration scheme using EPCS64 device
• Configures Stratix II GX device on power-up
