Configuration

Table 52. Board Description for Asymmetric Frames

Each Trinix circuit board typically has a program active in one or more
FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) ICs and another program active in
a microcontroller IC. The FPGA controls the board’s switcher functions,
while the microcontroller allows Broadlinx communication to and from the
FPGA and other board components.

In most cases, there will be more than one board of a given type in the
system (multiple output boards, for example). If there is a difference in
FPGA or microcontroller firmware version from one board to the next, the
version running on the first board will be shown and the fact that a differ-
ence exists will be indicated by three dots. For example, if there are four SO-
33110 output boards, three with firmware version “2” and one with firm-
ware version “1,” the table will show “1...”
