Hi
I have Arria V GT FPGA Development Board with Two 5AGTFD7K3 FPGAs. Can I interface a SD card to this board, so that I can load my program form SD card without using PC? Thanks a lot.Link Copied

I guess you could hang an SD card from the MAX II system controller, re-write the rtl for the system controller** such that it both a) configures the two FPGA's from the SD card and b) continues to perform all the other board house-keeping takes it usually does.
** bearing in mind the system controller is not something Altera expect you to change So, Yes it's possible, but far from easy. Perhaps it's the challenge you're after... Alternatively, if you simply want the FPGAs to automatically configure at power (without a PC), read 'Setting Up the Board' in section 4 of the user guide (https://www.altera.com/content/dam/altera-www/global/en_us/pdfs/literature/ug/ug_avgt_fpga_dev_kit.pdf). Store your FPGA design(s) in the FLASH memory. Cheers, Alex
