Expansion Connectors
The MicroBlaze Development Kit board provides a variety of expansion connectors for
easy interface flexibility to other off-board components. The board includes the following
I/O expansion headers (see Figure 15-1 ):
x A Hirose 100-pin edge connector with 43 associated FPGA user-I/O pins, including
up to 15 differential LVDS I/O pairs and two Input-only pairs
x Three 6-pin Peripheral Module connections
x Landing pads for an Agilent or Tektronix connectorless probe
Hirose 100-pin FX2 Edge Connector (J3)
A 100-pin edge connector is located along the right edge of the board (see Figure 15-1 ). This
connector is a Hirose FX2-100P-1.27DS header with 1.27 mm pitch. Throughout the
documentation, this connector is called the FX2 connector.
As shown in
Figure 15-2 , 43 FPGA I/O pins interface to the FX2 connector. All but five of
these pins are true, bidirectional I/O pins capable of driving or receiving signals. Five pins,
FX2_IP<38:35> and FX2_IP<40> are Input-only pins on the FPGA. These pins are
highlighted in light green in Table 15-1 and cannot drive the FX2 connector but can receive
signals.
