Examples
The Nios II Embedded Evaluation kit comes with several applications
that showcase the versatility of the Nios II processor in various
applications such as imaging, graphics, networking etc.
To aid in the learning process of software developer, several design
examples have been provided in source code form in the examples
directory in the Nios II Embedded Evaluation Kit. These designs are
■
Altera Picture Viewer
■
Altera Mandelbrot C2H
■
Altera Application Selector
For each of these applications a basic overview and discussion of
operation is given. However much more detailed information can be
found in the source-code which is loaded after installing the Nios II
Embedded Evaluation Kit.
The Nios II Embedded Evaluation Kit also contains more applications
provided from third party vendors to showcase available graphics
libraries and middleware that have been ported to the Nios II processor,
but these designs are shipped in binary format as ready-to-run
demonstrations. Full designs for the ready-to-run demonstrations may be
obtained by directly contacting the provider of the demonstration in the
Nios II Embedded Evaluation Kit (NEEK), Cyclone III Edition
