The FPGA is programmed using Intel’s Quartus software via a USB blaster cable from Terasic. The FPGA device used is a EP4CE10E22 which has 10320 macrocells and 414Kb of RAM. The board also features a 4MB configuration device allowing the FPGA to auto start with the users last program on power up or reset.
The FPGA E-Block 2 board combines the speed and power of the Altera Cyclone IV series FPGA devices with the simplicity of E-Blocks to provide six full 8-bit E-Blocks compatible I/O ports.
