AGLP-EVAL-KIT

IGLOO PLUS Starter Kit

• Full current measurement capability of independent I/O banks and VCC for accurate power analysis
• Two I/O banks held at 3.3 V, two I/O banks may be independently set to 3.3 V, 2.5 V, or to the sweep voltage of 1.2 V to 1.5 V (potentiometer set)
• Low power precision 20 MHz oscillator for system clock is provided
• Three LEDs and three switches provide simple inputs and outputs to the system
• USB-to-UART connection for HyperTerminal on a PC
• Optional board power connector for an external supply, but none is needed when connected to a USB cable
• Ability to switch VCORE from 1.2 V to 1.5 V as needed and vary the core to simulate battery failure
• JTAG pins may be run at any voltage from 1.2 V to 1.5 V
• Most I/O intensive, lowest power 125,000 system-gate FPGA
  • Dynamic, Static and Flash*Freeze power consumption are phenomenally low on the AGLP125V2.
  • IGLOO PLUS offers the industry's best ratios of power, area, logic and features per I/O in a programmable device, delivering 6X better static power consumption, a 50% reduction in dynamic power consumption, a 2X improvement in I/O density, and as much as 2.7X the logic density compared with competitive programmable logic devices in a similar package.
• Eight test LEDs
• Four test switches and a reset switch
• All I/Os available for quick connection to external circuitry
