from Altera
The MAX® V CPLD Development Kit, from the market's leading supplier of CPLDs, provides a comprehensive, low-cost hardware platform to quickly begin developing low-cost, low-power CPLD designs. The development board is designed to prototype the most common CPLD applications, including I/O expansion, interface bridging, power management control, configuration and initialization control, and analog interface control.
With this platform, you can:
- Develop designs for the 5M570Z CPLD
- Measure CPLD power (VCCINT and VCCIO)
- Bridge between two different I/O voltages (adjustable VCCIO on CPLD Bank 2)
- Interface to external functions or devices via four connectors
- Read and write to memories:
- 8-kilobits (Kb) user flash memory (UFM) available within 5M570Z CPLD
- I2C or SPI EEPROMs (user installed)
- Come up to speed quickly with your CPLD design by reusing the example designs provided
- Reuse the kit’s PCB board and schematic as a model for your design
