Introduction
© March 2010 Altera Corporation
The kit includes a design example and application called the Board Test System to test
the functionality of the Cyclone IV GX transceiver starter board. The application
provides an easy-to-use interface to alter functional settings and observe the results.
You can use the application to test board components, modify functional parameters,
observe performance, and measure power usage. The application is also useful as a
reference for designing systems. To install the application, follow the steps in
“Installing the Cyclone IV GX Transceiver Starter Kit” on page
The application provides access to the following Cyclone IV GX transceiver starter
board features:

The application allows you to exercise most of the board components. While using the
application, you reconfigure the FPGA several times with test designs specific to the
functionality you are testing.
A GUI runs on the PC which communicates over the JTAG bus to a test design
running in the Cyclone IV GX device.
that is in the factory configuration.
