11 years agoLet me see ... The Arria V GT kit ...
http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/altera/kit-arria-v-gt.html Yeah, sure, I don't see why not. Please download the installation for the kit and compile some of their example designs, I'm pretty sure you'll see that they have different top-level pin assignments, and connect to different transceiver banks on the FPGA. In fact, that information is probably in the reference guide for the kit too. Take a more detailed look at the kit documentation, and if there is a specific question not answered in the documentation, people on this list will be able to answer your question. If you already have this kit, then notice that they only have design files for Quartus 12.1. My experience with Altera kits in-general is that its a good idea to have exactly that version of Quartus installed when you first use the kit, since the board-test-system (BTS) that usually ships with the kits does not always work with newer versions of Quartus. Once you've got a working design, you don't need the BTS GUI, but its a good way to check that your hardware works. Cheers, Dave
