I have released my new version of my FPGA Ethernet development board. It's all open-source, but I am shipping units to those interested in buying assembled versions. Detailed info is located here:
**broken link removed**
A feature list (taken from the web page):
FPGA
* Altera Cyclone EP1C12Q240Cx
* -8 Speed grade preloaded, -7 and -6 upon request
* 12,060 LE's - enough for 4 NIOS processors!
* 240 Kbits of on-chip RAM
* 2 PLL's - one pre-loaded with 50MHz oscillator, second upon request
* 1 PLL output header
* 240 QFP package
Programming
* Supports both Byteblaster II and Altium LiveDesign 3rd party programmer
* Soft JTAG chain support for Altium programmer
* EPCS4 Active-serial configuration device
RAM
* 256Kx32 / 512K x 16 SRAM with 12 nS access time (10,12,15 and 20 nS available)
* Easily integrates with both NIOS and Altium soft-processor
Flash
* Altera EPCS4 configuration device for Active Serial (AS) configuration on startupt
* 4 Mbits of space allows for a complete image and ~64 Kbyte of user-code
* 32-Mbit SPI Flash for extended storage of user-code; bootable with custom bootloader
Ethernet
* National Semiconductor DP83846A 10/100-Base TX PHY with industry standard MII
* Full-duplex communication and auto-negotiation
* MDIO interface
* 5 LED output signals that are connected to FPGA
* RJ45 jack and integrated magnetics with 2 LEDs connected to FPGA
* Works with Opencores Ethernet MAC and Altium's EMAC controllers
Peripherals
* Dallas I2C Real-time-clock with Battery
* Microchip on-board I2C temperature sensor
* Microchip 512 Kbit I2C EEPROM
* Power-on reset controller
* RS232 port
* 8x LED outputs and 4 pushbuttons + Reset button
* 16x GPIO signals
* 8x 5-Volt inputs and 8x 5-Volt bi-directional signals (can be toggled by jumper)
Software
* Comes with sample code that communicates with nearly all peripherals
* Altium Protel and Altera Quartus projects with Constraint and Pin files included
* Support is free!
Daughtercards
* Common daughtercards include ADC, DAC, serial port expander
* Custom design available to suit customer requirements
Feel free to contact me for any other questions. Jai.
