By using the LVDS cable (manufactured by Bando Densen) bundled with the "LVDS Interface Card", it is possible to verify the LVDS interface with the Intel® FPGA Development Kit. In addition to Tx (transmit) and Rx (receive) LVDS connectors, this interface card is equipped with HSMC connectors for cable connection. Evaluation of the pinout is also possible. By connecting this daughter card to an Intel® FPGA development kit equipped with an HSMC connector, you can immediately start developing an FPGA with an LVDS interface.

Evaluation verification example
By using the included LVDS cable, it is possible to evaluate not only Tx/Rx alone, but also Tx/Rx simultaneous evaluation by loopback without counter connection.
