Terasic Development and Education Boards
The Terasic Development and Education (DE-series) boards have a rich feature set that targets applications for teaching and projects, embedded systems and robotics, and research. Intel provides an extensive set of academia-focused material specifically designed for use with these DE-series boards.
Intel offers a limited donation program for qualified professors and instructors.
Teaching Curriculum & Materials
Teaching and Project Boards
These boards are designed to meet your educational needs for both undergraduate and graduate level courses. They include:
- A rich set of basic input and output features, such as robust switches, LEDs, seven-segment displays, and commonly-used I/O interfaces
- Modern, powerful FPGAs for implementing digital designs from simple logic circuits to complete systems
- More advanced features including a variety of memory devices, audio and video capability, as well as Ethernet and USB connectivity
- High-quality, robust board design and manufacturing, with protection circuitry on all I/O pin connectors
DE1-SoC
The DE1-SoC board is the recommended platform for teaching and projects.
