FPGA prototype board with ethernet interfaces - Vikram - 2004-07-31 13:48:00

Hello All

I am new to FPGA world and thinking to start self-project for learning
purpose. I am thinking of building ethernet switch as exercise and wondering
what are the options I have for development board which has ethernet
interfaces (2-4) connected to it.

Looking for any other suggestion you have.

Thanks

Hi Vikram,

        If you wish to start your project to FPGA which has ethetnet
interface on it, I suggest you take a look into Altera Stratix
Professional Development Board such as EP1S40F780C5...You can go to
Altera website (www.altera.com) to look for more detail information.

Hi Vikram,

you can use any Altera Evaluation Board that has daughtercard
connectors on it.
From www.devboards.de there is an ethernet daughtercard available with
a National 10/100/1000 PHY on it (just a PHY not a MAC/PHY).

We can add multiple interfaces on our Broaddown2
product via plug-in
modules. We have a PHY/RJ45 module coming in a few months that may be of
interest. Alternatively doing your own add-on is possible.

Were you planning to have the MACs in the FPGA or planning to use all in one
chips for the ethernet?

Re: FPGA prototype board with ethernet interfaces - Surender Sharma - 2004-08-05 21:16:00

Hi Vikram, <br>
We have a custom FPGA board with  <br>
two Optical Gigabit Ethernet ports and two SONET Compliant OC48 ports. <br>
We are using VirtexII-3000 and VirtexII-6000 parts. These are fully operational boards. As
you may or may not be aware that 6000 parts are very expensive so are these boards. We use
these boards for wire rate/performance testing for new designs. I do not know whether we
are selling these boards. <br>
