CYCLONE IV EP4CE15 STARTER KIT

USER MANUAL

Preface

The QMTech® Cyclone IV Starter Kit uses Intel(Altera) EP4CE15F23 device to demonstrate Intel’s leadership in offering power-efficient FPGAs. With enhanced architecture and silicon, advanced semiconductor process technology, and power management tools, power

consumption for Cyclone IV FPGAs has been reduced by up to 25 percent compared to Cyclone® III FPGAs. The result is the lowest power consumption of any comparable FPGA.

2. Getting Started Below image shows the dimension of the Cyclone IV Starter Kit: 99.6mm x 99.6mm. The unit in below image is millimeter(mm).

Figure 2-1. Cyclone IV Starter Kit Dimension

The Cyclone IV Starter Kit tool chain consists of Altera Quartus II 15.1, Altera USB Blaster cable, EP4CE15 development board and 5V DC power supply. Below image shows the Altera Quartus II 15.1

development environment which could be downloaded from Altera(Intel) office website:

2.2 Cyclone IV Starter Kit Hardware Design

2.2.1 Cyclone IV EP4CE15 Power Supply

The development board needs 5V DC input as power supply which could be directly injected from power

header or the J12 header Pin number 2. Users may refer to the hardware schematic for the detailed

design. The on board LED D4 indicates the 3.3V supply, it will be turned on when the 5V power supply is

active. In default status, all the FPGA banks IO power level is 3.3V because bank power supply is 3.3V.

Note: FPGA core supply 1.2V is regulated by On-Semi DC/DC chip NCP1529 which could output

maximum 1A current.
