Introduction
The ST1 base board is equipped with a multitude of I/O connectors for use with Mercury family
FPGA and SoC modules. The board is well-suited for rapid prototyping and for building FPGA systems,
without the need for developing custom hardware.
The board can also be used for production flash programming on Mercury modules, or for educational
purposes.
This board is specially designed for image processing applications.
The main features of the ST1 base board are:
•
Support for USB 3.0 host and USB 3.0 device
•
FTDI USB 2.0 High-Speed device controller
•
High-speed FPGA and flash programming over USB
