Appendix D: Using the Golden FPGA Configuration for System Self-Test R
Compact Flash or download, but the “Golden Boot” has been designed to verify that the
board is not damaged due to user abuse. This mode allows the user to verify that the board
itself is not the root cause of a design failing to function properly.
The BIST is a combination of pure hardware and processor centric tests combined into one
FPGA design.
The “Golden Boot” design covers the following elements of the system:
1. Clock presence
2. Push buttons, DIP switches, and LEDs
3. Audio CODEC and power amplifier
4. RS-232 serial ports and PS/2 ports
5. SVGA output
6. 10/100 Ethernet and Silicon Serial Number
7. Expansion ports
8. MGTs
9. System ACE processor interface
10. DDR SDRAM module and Serial Presence Detect PROM
The BIST consists of two different test strategies, a series of processor centric tests and pure
hardware non-processor centric tests. The pure hardware tests are used to verify the most
basic functions of the system and to provide a platform on which the processor centric tests
can build.
Hardware-Based Tests
These tests should be run in the order listed, because each test design can require a positive
result from a previous test.
Power Supply and RESET Test
This test verifies the correct operation of the on-board power supplies and system RESET
generation circuitry.
Additional Hardware Required
•
5V external power supply
•
Multimeter
•
Shorting Jumper Block
Test Procedure
1. Verify that three Shorting Jumper Blocks are installed in JP1, JP2, and JP3
2. Plug in the external 5V power supply, and turn on the board by sliding SW11 up
towards the “ON” label.
3. Connect the negative lead of the multimeter to J31 and the positive lead to J30. The
meter should read between 2.375V and 2.625V, and LED D17 “2.5V OK” should be on.
4. Connect the negative lead of the multimeter to J33 and the positive lead to J32. The
meter should read between 3.135V and 3.465V, and LED D18 “3.3V OK” should be on.
