Introduction
Setting Up the Board
© November 2009 Altera Corporation
The instructions in this chapter explain how to set up the Stratix IV GX FPGA
development board.
To set up and power up the board, perform the following steps:
1. The Stratix IV GX FPGA development board ships with its board switches
2. The development board ships with example designs stored in the flash memory
3. Connect the SDI HSMC to the host board by performing the following steps:
4. Connect the DC adapter (+16 V, 3.75 A) to the DC power jack (J4) on the FPGA
5. Set the POWER switch (SW1) to the on position. When power is supplied to the
preconfigured to support the example designs in the development kit. If you
suspect your board might not be currently configured with the default settings,
follow the instructions in
the board to its factory settings before proceeding.
device. Verify the rotary switch (SW2) is set to the 0 position to load the design
stored in the factory portion of flash memory.

reference clock to the host board.
Use only the supplied power supply. Power regulation circuitry on the
board can be damaged by power supplies with greater voltage.
