Acetone FPGAconfig Evaluation Board
 
The FPGAconfig Evaluation Board allows users to evaluate theFPGA configuration scheme. It is designed to work with any FPGA board which has an Altera 10-pin download header, and where the configuration mode pins can be set for slave serial mode. FPGA configuration files can be stored in either a 32Mbit SPI Flash, or SD/MMC cards. The board shown in the picture has a Micro SD connector, production boards will have a full size SD connector.

Ace-DUSB-PHY

Typically FPGA development boards have sufficient logic resources to support the development of USB hardware, but they do not have the capability to support the USB electrical specification. It provides two USB transceivers, each capable of supporting USB full and low speed. One transceiver is connected to a USB type A (Host) connector, and the other transceiver is connected to a USB type B (function or slave) connector. The daughter card connects to FPGA development boards using the Santa Cruz Connector format (three 0.1" pitch connectors), which is supported by Altera, and other development board vendors such as Microtronix.
DUSB-PHY can support any USB hardware IP that has a USB transceiver interface designed for simple USB transceivers such as the Fairchild USB1T11A. However, it is specifically designed to support usbhostslave, which is an Opencores USB 1.1 Host and Function IP core. The entire usbhostslave Verilog RTL source, along with an easy to use Altera SOPC Builder component, 2.6.10 uCLinux driver, and complete documentation, are available here .

Ace-USB2Flash Development Kit
 
The Ace-USB2Flash Development Kit includes everything you need to support the Base2Designs FPGA configuration scheme. It includes the USB2Flash programming adapter, and a Silicon Labs USB Debug Adapter. The USB2Flash board can be simply attached to the Silicon Labs Debug Adapter, thus providing a compact single unit capable of downloading C8051 firmware to your target hardware C8051, and FPGA configuration files to your flash memory

 
USB2Flash [V1.0]

The USB2Flash programming adapter supports the Base2Designs FPGA Configuration scheme. Attach USB2Flash to your PC USB port, connect the ribbon cable to your target hardware, and start downloading files to your target hardware flash memory.
Comes complete with 6 foot USB cable, and two 6 inch ribbon cables (wide pitch and narrow pitch).
You will also need a Silicon Labs USB Debug Adapter to download firmware to your target hardware C8051. You can purchase this seperately from vendors such as Digikey, or you you may wish to consider purchasing the USB2Flash Development Kit. USB2Flash can be used independent of the Silicon Labs tool, if you only need to program flash memory. So, if you are purchasing multiple USB2Flash, then you will probably only need one Silicon Labs USB Debug Adapter.

Ace-FPGA_CONFIG_SD
 
C8051 firmware project for Silicon Labs C8051. Supports writing and reading files to/from Secure Digital (SD), and Multi Media Card (MMC), thus permitting the Base2Designs FPGA Configuration scheme to support the storage of FPGA configuration files in SD/MMC memory. Comes with a complete Silicon Labs IDE project, ready to be loaded into the Silicon Labs IDE, compiled and downloaded to your target hardware C8051.
