Board Reference Type Description
Featured Devices
U19 FPGA EP2AGX260FF35, 1152-pin FBGA.
U32 CPLD EPM2210F256, 256-pin FBGA.
Configuration, Status, and Setup Elements
J6 USB type-B connector Connects to the computer to enable embedded USB-Blaster JTAG.
J9 JTAG chain header Enables and disables devices in the JTAG chain.
SW4 Board settings DIP switch Controls the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller functions such
as clock enable, SMA clock input control, and which image to load
from flash memory at power-up.
J5 JTAG connector Disables embedded blaster (for use with external USB-Blasters).
SW3 PCI Express DIP switch Controls the PCI Express lane width by connecting prsnt pins
together on the PCI Express edge connector.
D14 Configuration done LED Illuminates when the FPGA is configured.
D15 Load LED Illuminates when the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller is
actively configuring the FPGA.
D16 Error LED Illuminates when the FPGA configuration from flash memory fails.
D18 Power LED Illuminates when 2.5-V power is present.
