1 Introduction
The SMT111 is a single-module (TIM) site, and Sundance Local Bus (SLB) FPGA
mezzanine card standalone carrier board.
This carrier board features several external I/O interfaces.
The main features of the SMT111 are:
Single 12Vdc power input is required, and the on-board DC-DC power
converters produce the necessary TIM supplies,
TIM and SLB carrier board,
TIM comports connected to the SLB,
USB 2.0 interface connected to one TIM comport,
UART and RS232 interfaces,
On-board Flash memory to store the module configuration/application,
JTAG input and output.
The following connectors are provided to interface to:
12Vdc Power connector (to power the carrier board),
TIM connectors (to plug any of TIM module),
USB 2.0 (to interface to a computer/laptop/host-based system),
JTAG IN and JTAG OUT (to access any TI DSP processor),
Four RS232 (accessible from the Xilinx Spartan-3 FPGA or the USB controller),
Reset push-button (to re-initialise the carrier board),
One Rocket-IO Serial Link (RSL) (accessible either from top/bottom),
Xilinx JTAG Header (to access the Xilinx devices through the JTAG chain),
Sundance Local Bus (SLB) FPGA mezzanine slot (with SLB power connector),
MicroSD Flash socket.
