The FED_kit is composed by three boards:
To help the design of the interface with the FED-kit read this document (fed-kit_rules.pdf)
The Generic III is build around one FPGA that works as a switch between four ports (PCI, SDRAM, Flash memory and ~100 IO's). As its name said, the board is a generic one. You can find below multiple application and their documents (for Quartus software).
Some parts of design are now available : SDRAM controller, PCI core, PCI-x core (if you need some help contact me. Those designs are examples and have to be adapted to your design.
Here by clicking on the corresponding picture, you will find the last version to be downloaded on the GIII or CMC board according the design that you want to use, Fed emulator (Able to generate events on board or received them from PCI ...to be send on the SLink interface), Merger (Receive events from SLink and write them to PC memory with the Fed-kit protocol).

Merger (FRL) |
If you want to use the Stand Alone version clic here. With this version, you will be able to work with the fed-kit without using a cable. Events and FED-KIT design will works on the same board (GIII board). To do this you have to unplugged any CMC board (GIII alone)
