Intel FPGA MAX 10 Development Board

Description: MAXPROLOGIC FPGA DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM The MaxProLogic is an FPGA development board that is designed to be userfriendly and a great introduction into digital design for anyone. The MaxProLogic is designed to make digital design easy and cost effective. AtEarth People Technology we have years of experience helping students andhobbyists get started with FPGA design. We know that the learning curve ingetting started can be a time consuming and frustrating event. So, we created aUser Manual that walks the user from unpacking to creating the first project tocreating an epic project that will get attention. The core of the MaxProLogic is the Altera MAX10 FPGA. This powerful chip has 4,000 LogicElements and 200Kbits of Memory. The MAX10 is easily scalable from the entrylevel college student to the most advanced projects like an audio sound meterwith FFT. Upon the many great features of the MaxProLogic is the MAX10 chip has a builtin Flash for configuration and incorporates 8 channels of Analog to DigitalConversion. These two features alone create a far superior FPGA chip than anycompetitor on the market. It allows the user to create more diverse projects.

The MaxProLogic is designed to make digital design easy and cost effective. AtEarth People Technology we have years of experience helping students andhobbyists get started with FPGA design. We know that the learning curve ingetting started can be a time consuming and frustrating event. So, we created aUser Manual that walks the user from unpacking to creating the first project tocreating an epic project that will get attention. The Learning Curve with any new piece of hardware is always time consuming.We painstakingly crafted a guide that leaves out no details in creating a projectunder the Quartus Software Tool. We will explain how to organize project userfiles into a folder system for easy navigation. We will explain how to: Create a ProjectAdd User FilesAdd MegaFunction IP FilesAdd Synopsys Design Constraints,Assign Inputs and Outputs to pins of the MAX10Compile the DesignSynthesize the ProjectProgram into the MAX10 In short, the MaxProLogic will cut the time to get the time to get up and runningsignificantly. We also include several pre-made, fully compiled, fully synthesizedprojects for the user. You can start your project by copying one of these premadeprojects and adding user code. THE MAXPROLOGIC AND SIMULATION Simulation has always been a weak point for students and hobbyists. MostFPGA beginners write the user code, compile it, synthesize it, program the chipthen test out the results. While this approach may work for small, simpledesigns, it quickly becomes a problem with larger projects. As the user codeincreases in complexity, better development tools are required to quicklyisolate problems. The premier method for this is functional testing. ModelSim isincluded Free with the Quartus Prime Package. ModelSim is a powerful tool forfinding errors in the user code before you go to synthesis. Earth People Technology has created a guide that walks the user throughcreating a project and verifying functionality of user code. This guide willexplain the use of the TestBench, Tasks, and Models in verification of the usercode. In specifics, the guide will explain: Create a ModelSim ProjectCreate a Makefile and Compilation of user codeCreate a TestBench and Stimulus of user codeAdd Synopsys Design Constraints,Assign Inputs and Outputs to pins of the MAX10Create Models for user code to Interact WithAdd Clock Signals, Resets, and Timing ElementsDebug the Functionality of user code PROGRAMMING TOOLS FOR THE MAXPROLOGIC The MaxProLogic leverages the Quartus Prime Lite Software for compilationand synethsis. This software tool is completely free and provides very powerfultools for the user. Also included free in the software tools is the simulation tool,ModelSim. A lot beginners to the FPGA world are hesitant about usingsimulation tools. They feel these tools are too difficult to learn and use. This iswhere the MaxProLogic breaks that fear. The MaxProLogic comes with a userguide that walks the user from start up to full simulation. Each step is welldocumented and explained. THE MAXPROLOGIC HARDWARE The MaxProLogic is Open Source Hardware based on theMAX10 FPGA. In addition to the on chip 8 Channel ADC and onchip Flash, the board is loaded with great tools. The board hastwo power options, standard USB Micro B connector and5.5mm Barrel connector. You can run the MaxProLogic from alaptop with 2.5W of power. Or you can run it from the +5V @2A wall USB chargers for 10W of power. The barrel connectorcan handle up to +9V @ 3 A for 27W of power. The MaxProLogic has a MicroSD connector on the bottom of theboard. This allows the user to create a powerful long termData Acquisition System. The board has an optional On/Offpushbutton switch that allows the user to turn the system onand off. There are two clocking options, 50MHz oscillator and32.768KHz oscillator. The block diagram shows all of the parts of the MaxProLogic. There is amain switching power supply for +3.3V. The +3.3V powers the core of the FPGAalong with the Input/Outputs of the FPGA as well as providespower for user circuits. MaxPrologic Communications The MaxProLogic has a built in connector to allow FTDI Breakout Boards or Equivalent to connect directly to the FPGA. There are two voltage level translators that allow both +5V and +3.3V devices to communicate via UART with the FPGA.
