Overview
The Microsemi SmartFusion Evaluation Kit provides designers access to SmartFusion customizable SoC
FPGAs, the only devices that integrate an FPGA, an ARM
®
Cortex
®
-M3 processor, and programmable
analog, offering full customization, IP protection, and ease-of-use.
The device contains on-chip flash and on-chip SRAM memory, as well as additional SPI flash memory on
the board.
Pre-Programmed Demo Design
The SmartFusion Evaluation Kit comes with a preloaded Webserver demo design. If the board is
not preprogrammed, the programming file and the source files for the demo are provided on the
SmartFusion Evaluation Kit page. The source files are posted with the SmartFusion Webserver Demo
Using uIP and FreeRTOS document. See the Documentation Resources section for more information.
Running the Hardware Test Design
You can run the hardware test design to verify the device and board connections. The test design files
are available from the SmartFusion Evaluation Kit web page. Instructions on how to run the test are
available in the SmartFusion Evaluation Kit User’s Guide. See the Documentation Resource section for
more information.
