Reference Manual

SW6

PCI Express DIP switch

Controls the PCI Express lane width by connecting prsnt pins
together on the PCI Express edge connector. This switch is located at
the back of the board.

S3

Program select push button

Toggles the program LEDs which selects the program image that loads
from flash memory to the FPGA.

S2

Program load push button

Configures the FPGA from flash memory image based on the program
LEDs.

D4, D5, D6

Program LEDs

Illuminates to show the LED sequence that determines which flash
memory image loads to the FPGA when you press the program load
push button.

D17

Configuration done LED

Illuminates when the FPGA is configured.

D15

Load LED

Illuminates during FPGA configuration.

D16

Error LED

Illuminates when the FPGA configuration from flash fails.

D24

Power LED

Illuminates when 5-V power is present.

D25, D26

System Console TX/RX LEDs

Indicate the transmit or receive activity of the System Console USB
interface. The TX and RX LEDs would flicker if the link is in use and
active. The LEDs are either off when not in use or on when in use but
idle.

D27, D28

JTAG TX/RX LEDs

Indicate the transmit or receive activity of the JTAG chain. The TX and
RX LEDs would flicker if the link is in use and active. The LEDs are
either off when not in use or on when in use but idle.

D29, D30, D31,
D32

Ethernet LEDs

Indicate the connection speed as well as transmit or receive activity.

D3, D13

HSMC port A LEDs

You can configure these LEDs to indicate transmit or receive activity.

D1

HSMC port A Present LED

Illuminates when a daughtercard is plugged into the HSMC port A.

D11, D14

HSMC port B LEDs

You can configure these LEDs to indicate transmit or receive activity.

D2

HSMC port B Present LED

Illuminates when a daughtercard is plugged into the HSMC port B.

D33, D34

PCI Express Gen2/Gen3 LED

You can configure these LEDs to illuminate when PCI Express is in
Gen2 or Gen3 mode.

D35, D36, D37

PCI Express Link LEDs

You can configure these LEDs to display the PCI Express link width
(x1, x4, x8).

Clock Circuitry

X1

125 M oscillator

125.000-MHz crystal oscillator for Gigabit Ethernet, Serial RapidIO™
(SRIO), or PCI Express.

U38

Quad-output oscillator

Programmable oscillator with default frequencies of 100 MHz,
156.25 MHz, 625 MHz, and 270 MHz.

U46

Quad-output oscillator

Programmable oscillator with default frequencies of 125 MHz,
644.53125 MHz, 282.5 MHz, and 125 MHz.

X6

148.5 M oscillator

148.500-MHz voltage controlled crystal oscillator for SDI video. This
oscillator is programmable to any frequency between 20-810 MHz.

X4

100 M oscillator

100.000-MHz (programmable to any frequency between 20–810 MHz)
crystal oscillator for PCI Express or general use such as memories.
Multiplex with CLKIN_SMA_P or CLKIN_SMA_N based on CLK_SEL
switch value.
