4. Procedure
1. Connect the Sonoma board to the JB1 port of a LX9 MicroBoard as shown in
Figure 1 .
2. Connect the P1 USB connector of the LX9 MicroBoard directly to the computer.
Or, use a USB extension cable to connect the LX9 MicroBoard to the computer.
3. Connect the AC power supply and the load to the Sonoma board as shown in
Figure 4 .
4. Download the latest RD14V01_00.ZIP file located at
www.maximintegrated.com/sonoma . All files available for download are
available at the bottom of the page.
5. Extract the RD14V01_00.ZIP file to a directory on your PC. The location is
arbitrary but the path prior to where you extract the .ZIP file must not exceed 82
characters due to the Windows 250-character total path limitation. For example,
this 90-character preceding path would be an example of a path that would be
too long:
C:\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\
0123456789\0123456789\0123456789\RD14V01_00.ZIP
(This path is too long.)
In addition, the Xilinx tools require the path to not contain any spaces.
C:\Do Not Use Spaces In The Path\RD14V01_00.ZIP (This path has spaces.)
For the purposes of this document, it will be C:\designs\maxim\RD14V01_00\.
