Description
GEB High Performance System On Card (Soc-Card) contains everything you need to start using the
advanced features of Altera CycloneII family and features a socketed board with an EP2C8Q208 device in
a PQFP208 package, allowing other devices from the CycloneII family to be fitted to the board.
All technology Fpga requirements, power management, distribution and decoupling, fine pitch package
connection, multilayer PCB manufacturing, double side PCB mounting and testing are met by Soc-Card
board. One programming interface on the board support in-system programming (ISP) using Altera Byte
Blaster and JTAG programming and testing.
Precompiled Board Support Package (BSP) allows the user to
easy fit on the Soc Boards customized version of Altera NIOS-II
softcore or RPIC16R87 Risc Pic GEB IP. A large set of NIOS
Peripherals or GEB peripherals IP can be connected to NIOS-II
or RPIC I/O bus to generate a specific application control system
on SocCard.
The SocCard has on-board the resources to allow to efficient use of the FPGA, Cpu softcore (NIOS-II and
RPIC16R87) and all available IP, and solves all issues related to the implementation of subsystems (boot
device, Power on reset, core power supply and decoupling, clock distribution, USB and/or RS232 and/or
CAN interface, AD input filtering…) thus providing a benefit to the user that can focus only on its system.
The SRAM allows the integration of NIOS cpu solftcore and the execution of downloaded program from
local boot device (EPCS) or remote boot device via HDLC, CAN, RS232 or USB. Eight channel AD
converter allows control of system resource like power supply, temperature, current and so on. The user
can use Part Trough Hole (PTH) components on a simple 0.1 inches step prototyping carrier board.
RS232 and USB transceiver make easy the user connection to the host computer. USB interface is factory
configurable as target port (Default version) or host port.
