Honored ContributorRapidIO IP in Cyclone III EP3C120F780 FPGA ???
Can any one you tell me does the RapidIO from Altera is supported by the Cyclone III FPGA Development Kit containing Cyclone III EP3C120F780 FPGA
This question arise because in the RapidIO MegaCore Function user guide it is there in the Table 1–2. Device Family Support that Cyclone III Final (4th row in table) Cyclone III LS Preliminary (5th row in the table ) but it also tells the FPGA Cyclone III (EP3C55F780C6) is supporting the RapidIO. OBSERVE THE DIFFERENCE IN NUMBERING OF THE TWO FPGA'S HERE We have the Board Cyclone III FPGA Development Kit containing Cyclone III EP3C120F780 FPGA can we use this for the incorporating the RapidIO IP RapidIO is having Baud rate of 3.125Gbaud with external SERDES in cyclone III . Also tell me what is actually meant by the external SERDES????13 Replies
Altera_ForumYes, both Cyclone IV GX kits delivered by Altera can be used to test a PCI express link.

Hi,
Finally We have the stratix II GX EP2SGX90F1508C3 FPGA Board and now want to develop a system that works as very high speed serial Interface using the transceivers present in the FPGA. For this purpose which is the IP from the Altera that suits better for this application so that we can achieve the target at earliest since we have less time with us.
