Arria 10 SoC Development Kit: FMC-I/O Card

Hello,

I'm using Arria 10 SoC Development Kit and I need some more I/O with debugging purposes. I read about using FMC interface to get more I/O. For example Xilinx has a specific card to uses FMC as I/O (https://www.mouser.es/datasheet/2/903/ug537-1596367.pdf).

 

Is there any similar board from Intel to use in Arria 10 SoC Development Kit or any compatible alternative? (not FMC Loopback Card)

 

Thank you in advance.

Hello,


Sorry for the delay. To answer your question, FMC already have the maximum IO access and there is no other board other that has more IO access than this FMC board.


Thank you for your patience. Hope that answers your question.


Best regards,

Hello @NazrulNaim_Intel,

 

The question was if there is a board made by Intel (or compatible) that makes FMC I/Os more accessible like the board from Xilinx I shared in first comment. I know all the I/O possibles are available in FMC connector but this connector is not handy for debugging or rapid prototyping. Is there any option?

Hello,


Regarding your enquiry, you can use signaltap in the Quartus software where it can view the internal signals of the FPGA running on your board without using external measurement equipment.

Hello @NazrulNaim_Intel,

The solution you suggest is to see internal signal. I need to access to each FMC I/O individually like in the Xilinx board of the first message. Is there any Intel alternative or any compatible board?

Hello,


Sorry for the misunderstanding. To answer your question, you can use FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) Breakout Board. Below I will attach the link regarding the board.

Hope this answers your question.
