clock input sources, all of which are located below the Xilinx logo, near the Spartan-3E

logo.
x

The board includes an on-board 50 MHz clock oscillator.

x

The user clock socket is populated with a 66 MHz oscillator

x

Clocks can be supplied off-board via an SMA-style connector. Alternatively, the FPGA

can generate clock signals or other high-speed signals on the SMA-style connector.

x

Optionally install a separate 8-pin DIP-style clock oscillator in the supplied socket

.
