ECP5 PCI Express Board User’s Guide
Introduction
The ECP5™ PCI Express Board allows designers to investigate and experiment with the features of the ECP5
Field-Programmable Gate Array. The features of the ECP5 PCI Express Board can assist engineers with rapid pro-
totyping and testing of their specific designs. The guide is intended to be referenced in conjunction with demo
user’s guides to demonstrate the ECP5 FPGA.
