The CAS10 development board offers features to significantly improve the design and testing of advanced DSP systems. Connectors on the board provide easy I/O pin access and allow for mating with various daughter boards, such as CEPD's high-speed analog I/0 (HSA-II) board. A portion of the CAS10 is specifically designed for prototyping to allow developers on-board integration of custom circuitry. Programming of the FPGA can be performed with Quartus II software directly from a PC using a parallel cable. In addition, an enhanced configuration device allows for non-volatile programming.

CAS10 Features :

• Contains a Stratix^TM 1S10 FPGA with six embedded DSP blocks, 900K of embedded RAM, and more than 10K logic elements.
• Provides access to 226 user I/O pins.
• Contains an EPC4 enhanced configuration device.
• All development can be done with free tools available from the web.
• JTAG programming hardware is build into the board so only a printer cable is required to configure the board.
• Mates with CEPD's High Speed Analog I/O card (HSA-II).
• Ships with user manual, schematics, and a reference design.
