Embedded Control Made Easy

Arrow and Altera have partnered to make your embedded control designs easier…and more affordable…than ever before. Introducing BeMicro, a compact and low-cost hardware evaluation platform for a broad range of embedded applications. Using system-on-a-programmable chip (SOPC) methodology, the BeMicro is a USB stick, so it plugs into virtually any computer or USB hub. Even if you have little or no experience designing with FPGAs, you can now enjoy all the benefits that this savvy technology brings to your designs.

Global Workshops Teach You to Build a Custom FPGA Microcontroller in Minutes Arrow and Altera are pleased to announce the launch of over 50 global workshops developed to quickly get you up and running with a brand new FPGA-based microcontroller design.  These informative workshops, complemented by numerous Arrow FAE lunch-and-learns, make it easier than ever to discover the flexibility and affordability that FPGAs bring to any embedded design. Sign Me Up! Every Attendee Receives a FREE Evaluation Board Sign up now for only $39 and receive a FREE BeMicro FPGA-Based MCU evaluation board (a $129 value), design examples, and training for the latest Altera tools and techniques. You'll walk away with literally everything you'll need to easily create your own system, with peripherals specific to your design!

A Complete FPGA Evaluation System in the Palm of Your Hands

Featuring an Altera Cyclone® III FPGA, the BeMicro not only integrates seamlessly into both the Quartus® II FPGA design framework and the Nios® II GNU-based development environment, but it is powerful enough to accommodate even the most complex systems. And finally, eight freely assignable LEDs enable states to be displayed clearly.

Key Features:

• Altera Cyclone® III FPGA—EP3C16F256C8N
• Altera Nios® II embedded processor
• 16 MHz clock oscillator
• Three status LEDs
• Eight user LEDs
• 80-pin edge connector
