Board Test for Altera UP1
Steven Sutankayo, Duncan Elliott, Noah Aklilu
The Altera UP1 board is a prototyping board that can be used for FPGA development.
The board contains two FPGAs, each of which can be programmed independently.
Test programs have been developed for both FPGAs.
One FPGA is an Altera MAX 7000-series chip. It is located on the
left side of the project board. Files related to its test program
start with the word "max".
The other FPGA is an Altera FLEX10k-series chip, located on the right
side of the board. Files related to its test program start with the
word "flex"
1.0 Programming Files
These files are downloaded to the UP1 board to run the test.
FLEX: UP1FlexTest.sof
MAX: UP1MaxTest.pof
2.0 Documentation
The document describes the test procedure and explains how the tests work.

3.0 Design Files
The design files contain the MAXPLUS2 source files (.vhd, .acf) used to
create the tests. The zip file also contains source code for the
documentation.

4.0 Misc.
A utility to automatically create pin assignments for Altera .acf files
is also available. It is a PERL script, so it must be executed from a UNIX
system.
