Terasic SDI to HSMC Adapter Board P0039

The Transceiver Serial Digital Interface (SDI) HSMC board provides a hardware platform for developing video broadcasting systems. It is intended to be used by customers to implement and design SDI and AES systems based on transceiver-based host boards with an HSMC interface. It can also be part of an openly sold Development Kit, or bundled with packages of software and IP cores.

System CD ROM

An FPGA is a semiconductor device consisting of a matrix of Configurable Logic Blocks (CLBs) connected through programmable interconnects. The user determines these interconnections by programming SRAM. A CLB can be simple (AND, OR gates, etc) or complex (a block of RAM). The FPGA allows changes to be made to a design even after the device is soldered into a PCB.
