Genesys Logic GL9714                   External PHY Module
	Philips Semiconductor PX1011A External PHY Module

Powered by Altera Cyclone II and supported by PCI Express IP core available through HiTech Global, the Cyclone II board  is an ideal platform for development and evaluation of PCI Express based designs. The Cyclone II PCI Express board is supported by series of modules populated with Genesys Logic, Philips, or TI External PHY chips.

Features:

• Populated with Cyclone II 70 (-6 speed grade)
• DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM. The board is shipped with a 256 MB DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM. The board can support up a 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM (a custom version of the PCI Express Reference Design is needed to support any size other than 256 MB)
• x4 PCI Express Connector
• The Expansion Card Connector is high-speed, impedance-controlled connector, Samtec part number MIS- 095-01-L-D-K. The Expansion Card Connector can be used to attach an application-specific expansion card. An optional expansion card enables the PCI Express Development Board to implement a complete three-port application (PCI Express Port, SDRAM port, custom port).
• Loopback Connector pluggable into the Expansion Connector. The Loopback Connector is used to test the Expansion Connector during the board self-test.
• PHY Daughter Card Connector. The PHY Daughter Card Connector is high-speed, impedance-controlled connector. It enables Philips, Ti, and Genesys Logic PHY Daughter Cards contained a PCI Express PHY to be connected to the board.
• Cable Header. The Cable Header can be used for connection to a logic analyzer or other system board. The board comes with a Loopback Cable which plugs into the Cable Header. The Loopback Cable is used to test the Cable Header during the board self-test.
• The JTAG Connector is used to program the FPGA Configuration PROM or directly program the Cyclone II.
