Overview

The ViClaro III Video Host Board provides a high data bandwidth Cyclone III host development platform for building HD video applications. By supporting 256MB of DDR2 memory with a 64-bit DDR2 memory bus, it provides the data bandwidth required to support video resolutions to 1080p at 120 Hz.

The ViClaro III Video Host Board requires the purchase of optional HSMC add-on cards to create an FPGA development platform suitable for specific requirements.
