1. OVERVIEW
BeMicro Max 10 is a FPGA evaluation kit that is designed to get you started with using an FPGA. BeMicro Max 10
adopts Altera’s non-volatile
MAX
®
10 FPGA
built on 55-nm flash process.
MAX 10 FPGAs revolutionize non-volatile integration by delivering advanced processing capabilities in a low-cost,
instant-on, small form factor programmable logic device. The devices also include full-featured FPGA capabilities
such as digital signal processing, analog functionality, Nios II embedded processor support and memory controllers.
The BeMicro Max 10 includes a variety of peripherals connected to the FPGA device, such as 8MB SDRAM,
accelerometer, digital-to-analog converter (DAC), temperature sensor, thermal resistor, photo resistor, LEDs,
pushbuttons and several different options for expansion connectivity.
The kit retains the 80-pin edge connector interface used on previous Arrow BeMicro kits. Users can migrate their
designs from BeMicro SDK or BeMicro CV easily and take advantage of the new features Altera offers in the MAX 10
FPGA device, such as an ADC block, temperature sense diode and flash memory.
