You have not provided enough details for us to help you out.
Just get a development board with the Cyclone from a vendor. It will have enough hardware on there to get to started.- Mark as New

Starting with a Dev Kit is a good suggestion. On the other hand, you can start a hardware design from the scratch as you would do e.g. with a microprocessor. The device handbook contains all necessary information, but some design experience is required to understand it completely, I think.
To answer the question strictly, you need at least a dual (VCCINT/VCCIO) power supply, a clock source, nonvolatile configuration memory (not absolutely necessary during test), a JTAG connector and the user IO to be interfaced with the FPGA. Also an Altera or compatible third party USB Blaster or Byte Blaster.- Mark as New

hi guys, thanks for the help. This is my situation:
my overall system is an ADC --> FIR filter --> upsampling(4) --> DAC. I've already implemented the above system using a stratix II DSP kit. Now i want to build my own hardware (prototype) using only the necessary elements with a cyclone fpga. can you list me what are the elements do i need to make this system?
