PCIe Basic Demo for Lattice Nexus-based FPGAs

Basic Demonstration on Peripheral Component Interconnect Express

The PCIe Basic demo shows the capabilities of the Lattice FPGA and the PCI Express Endpoint IP core functionality in a PCI Express slot in a Linux (Ubuntu)/Windows 10 PC. This demo software allows to access memory and registers on the board and provides real time interaction with the FPGA hardware to demonstrate a functional PCI Express communications path between the application, driver software, and the FPGA IP.

CrossLink-NX PCIe Bridge Board - Features the CrossLink-NX FPGA in the 400-ball caBGA package and expand the usability of the CrossLink-NX FPGA with 2.5 Gbps Hardened MIPI D-PHY, 5 Gbps PCIe, 1.5 Gbps programmable I/O, DDR3, USB 3.0, Ethernet, and SGMII.

Certus-NX Versa Evaluation Board - Features the Certus-NX FPGA in the 256-ball caBGA package and can expand the usability of the Certus-NX FPGA with DDR3, soft D-PHY, 1 Gbps Ethernet and 1× PCIe (Gen2) channel.

Features

  • Three 7-segment LED control on the Lattice Nexus FPGA
  • Manipulating onboard memory of the FPGA through the PCIe slot
  • Supports PCI Express x1 Protocol
