The board provides two custom interfaces to daughter
cards via 74-pin headers. (These pins can also be used
for general I/O.)
These connectors are referred to on the board as
“Santa Cruz Daughter Card 1“ and “Santa Cruz
Daughter Card 2”
Note to Table 1:
(1) These headers can be used to interface to Analog Devices A/D converter evaluation boards. They are designated
as J5 and J6, and interface to Analog Devices AD6645/9433/9430 external A/D converters.
Environmental Requirements
The Stratix II EP2S60 DSP development board must be stored between
–40° C and 100° C. The recommended operating temperature is between
0° C and 55° C.
1
The Stratix II EP2S60 DSP development board can be damaged
without proper anti-static handling.
f
The DSP Development Kit, Stratix II Edition includes a heat sink and fan
combination, also known as an active heat sink. Depending on the
specific requirements of your application, this level of cooling may not
be necessary. Refer to “Install the Active Heat Sink” on page 49 for more
information.
