Figure 2–11. PMC Connector

The PMC connector supplies +3.3V, +5V and +/- 12V, as required by the
PCI specification. However, DC power regulators for these supplies
cannot provide enough power to fully satisfy the PCI power specification.
The current that the board can supply through JH1 and JH2 is dependent
on the design configured in the FPGA. As a general guideline, if the PMC
card power requirements exceed the specifications shown in

Table 2–14

,

you must connect an external power source.

w

When connecting an external power supply, the fuse for the
corresponding voltage should be removed to prevent the two
power supplies from interfering with each other. Refer to

“Power-Supply Circuitry” on page 2–44

for more information.

Table 2–15

lists the connections between the PMC connector and the

FPGA.
