Course Description
This online course will instruct you in how to build Serial RapidIO solutions targeting Stratix® IV GX FPGAs using the Quartus® II software v. 8.1. In this course, you will learn how to configure the Altera RapidIO MegaCore® IP function for your RapidIO-based design and connect it to the system interconnect fabric using the SOPC Builder tool. You will also learn how to directly configure the Stratix IV GX transceivers for a physical-layer only implementation, so you can connect your own custom RapidIO logical and transport layer blocks.At Course Completion
You will be able to:- Describe the features and functionality of the RapidIO MegaCore IP function when using the Stratix® IV GX transceivers
- Configure a Serial RapidIO design block and incorporate it into an SOPC Builder system
- Describe how the RapidIO core interfaces with the system interconnect fabric
- Configure the Stratix IV GX transceiver for a custom RapidIO solution
