18 years agoHSMC Specification
Hello,
the Cyclone III FPGA Starter Board Reference Manual says: "For more information regarding the HSMC, refer to the High Speed Mezzanine Card Electrical and Mechanical Specification version 1.2 or later." Where can i get this specification? I can't find it one the Altera website. Thanks in advance! Michael23 Replies

--- Quote Start --- Hi, fall, I am also interested in this eagle footprint. Would you please send it to [email protected]? Also, a starter's question: I may need to build a test board with HSMC connector. What's the best way to have the HSMC connector mounted on the test board? (I may use expressPCB, so the board will has no component on it) Is it possible to mount it by myself? Thanks very much, Kevin --- Quote End --- The easiest way is to use the pin out board: http://www.bitec.ltd.uk/hsmc_proto.html - Altera_Forum

Michael79,
Thanks for suggestion. I will take your idea. My approach will be a little bit different: a board from TERASIC https://www.terasic.com.tw/cgi-bin/page/archive.pl?language=english & No=322 it cost $55 a piece, $35 for shipping from Taiwan. Best, gl888 - Altera_Forum

--- Quote Start --- Greg--It was actually the user named "fall" who offered to make the Eagle footprints available. I've got them in Orcad, if that would help let me know. Otherwise I'm afraid you'll have to rely on fall... --- Quote End --- Hello PoeticLicense, I would love the footprints in Orcad for the asp-122952-01 HSMC connector. Thanks so much for any assistance. [email protected] -Kelley - Altera_Forum

Hi Fall,
Can you please send me the Eagle footprints for Samtec Connector (ASP-122952-01)? My email is [email protected]. Thank you very much! - Altera_Forum

--- Quote Start --- I already have the Samtec Connector (ASP-122952-01) because i want to build an expansion board for the Cyclone III Development Kit. (If somebody is interested in an EAGLE footprint for this connector, let me know.) The pinout/signal names for the HSMC connector is the point i'm interested in! Your proposal was the correct location: In the document "CycloneIII_SB_3C25.pdf" on page 11 you can find the HSMC connector. Thanks! --- Quote End --- Is there anyway you could send me that footprint? It would be a huge help! I'm at [email protected] - Altera_Forum
