DECA Development Kit

The DECA Development Kit presents a robust hardware design platform built around the Altera

MAX 10 FPGA, which is the industry’s first single chip, non-volatile programmable logic devices

(PLDs) to integrate the optimal set of system components. Users can now leverage the power of

tremendous re-configurability paired with a high-performance, low-power FPGA system. Providing

internally stored dual images with self-configuration, comprehensive design protection features,

integrated ADCs and hardware to implement the Nios II 32-bit microcontroller IP, MAX10 devices

are ideal solution for system management, I/O expansion, communication control planes, industrial,

automotive and consumer applications. The DECA development board is equipped with high-speed

DDR3 memory, video and audio capabilities, Ethernet networking, and much more that promise

many exciting applications.

The DECA Development Kit contains all the tools needed to use the board in conjunction with a

computer that runs the Microsoft Windows XP or later.

Figure 1-1 shows a photograph of the DECA package.
