Microchip
The PIC32CZ CA80 series of Microcontrollers is our latest Cortex-M7 Microcontroller with a wide range of connectivity options including Ethernet, CAN FD, HS USB, I2S, I2C, SPI, etc. that can implement such functionality and applications such as industrial gateways, graphics, and automotive applications.
The IGLOO2 Evaluation Kit makes it easier to develop embedded devices for motor control, system management, industrial automation or high-speed serial I/O applications based on the IGLOO2 FPGAs. These FPGAs are notable for their strong feature integration, low power consumption, exceptional reliability, and proven security.
The IGLOO2 Evaluation Kit provides a platform to develop transceiver I/O-based FPGA designs for PCI Express- and Gigabit Ethernet-based systems. The board is compliant with the small form-factor PCIe format, allowing quick prototyping and evaluation using any desktop PC or laptop with a PCIe slot.
The kit enables developers to:
- Develop and test PCI Express Gen2 x1 lane designs
- Test signal quality of the FPGA transceiver using full-duplex SERDES SMA pairs
- Measure the low power consumption of the IGLOO2 FPGA
- Quickly create a working PCIe link
The board includes an RJ45 interface to 10/100/1000 Ethernet, 512 Mbits of LPDDR, 64 Mbits of SPI Flash, and USB-UART connections as well as I2C, SPI and GPIO headers.
