content: RAWR, FPGA lovers.Anyone have a original kit CD image for board in topic? I got board while ago without any software, and would like to try some stuff on it, but my google-fu is not working right today...If you have image, please drop onftp.And following tradition of oversizing my posts with slow-loading bulky photo, here's board overview for some ALTERA love...Board Components? Two 12-bit 125-MHz A/D converters? Two 14-bit 165-MHz D/A converters? One 8-bit, 180 megapixels-per-second triple D/A converter for VGA output? One 96-KHz Stereo Audio coder/decoder (CODEC)? Memory subsystem? 1 MByte of 10-ns asynchronous SRAM configured as a 32-bit bus? 16 MBytes of flash memory configured as an 8-bit bus? 32 MBytes of SDRAM memory configured as a 64-bit bus? CompactFlash connector supporting ATA and IDE access modes? Configuration options? On-board configuration using 16 MBytes of flash memory and an Altera® EPM7256 MAX® device? Download configuration data using an USB BlasterTM download cable? Single-ended or differential inputs and outputs accessed via a Mictor connector? Dual seven-segment display? Four user-defined push-button switches? One female 9-pin RS-232 connector? 10/100 Ethernet MAC/PHY? Eight user-defined LEDs? Socketed 100-MHz oscillator? Single 16-V DC power supply (adapter included)? Active heat sinkRunning factory config:

content: That is some nice equipment pornI wish I can be given one (or buy one cheap) of those to experiment with... Now all I have is a MAX II CPLD coupled to either Raspberry Pi or Arduino Due...

content: Quote from: TiN on May 06, 2015, 11:30:52 amIf you would like to donate I would appreciate. I am still a newbie on this front and for now all I have is a few MAX II CPLD eval boards I built myselfI bought the eval board unassembled, source all the parts according to its BOM (basically cheapest source available from Shenzhen) and build it myself - all SMD soldering with 0603 size (leftover from my previous project, which was all 0603) parts despite the board designed with 0805.

content: Hello,i bought this Board on eBay last year for around 100€. Everything works as far as i can test. But i have a problem:I can only program the FPGA via JTAG but not the Flash AM29LV128, it is connected to the MAX CPLD. So ... in the maual is something written:QuoteI can generator the .flash file from my bitstream but i can't find the altera_dsp_dev_board_stratix_2s180.sof and i am not sure if there is a NIOSII running, in my design programmed via JTAG into the FPGA it is not. maybe in the factory configuration but i don't know.With older Quartus versions there was another (older) way to program the Flash, write2flash.exe but in the Quartus 11 i can't find it.I am using a Quartus 11 i got somewhere on the Internet so the board-specific files are all missing ...Could you please tell me how to program the Flash via the Altera MAX CPLD or the NIOSII-flash-programmer? Or could you please upload the CD .zip again, or the write2flash.exe? Thank you very much!Greetings from the bavarian part of Germany.

content: Hello,I just acquired the Stratix II EP2S180 DSP Dev Board but there is no kit CD ROM.I searched but could not find anywhere on the Internet.I just wonder if anyone still has the CD or file StratixII_DSP-v1.1.0_CD.zipThank you
