Components

Camera

The camera interface connector is foreseen to be used with different camera models. The connector layout is:

pin signal function
1 3.3 V 3.3 V
2 GND GND
3 TxD / SCLK RS232 / I2C control
4 RxD / SDA
5 Frame valid / VSync frame control
6 Line valid / HRef
7 Data valid
8 Pixel clock
9 D0 frame data
10 D1
11 D2
12 D3
13 D4
14 D5
15 D6
16 D7
17 D8
18 D9
19 D10
20 D11
21 CC1 / ExtSync camera control
22 CC2 / XCLK
23 CC3 / Reset
24 CC4 / PowerDn

ADC

The board hosts a ADS8028 12-bit, 1 MSPS, 8-channel analog-to-digital converter.

The ADC is powered with the input 5 V for the analog part and with a local 3.3 V for the digital lines. The voltage reference input connects to the analog power supply via jumper J5.

Inputs AIN0 to AIN4 are used to monitor the board's power supplies. Inputs AIN5 to AIN7 are sourced by connector J9.

The connection to the FPGA is given in the following table:

ADC

FPGA

CS_n C16 chip select, active low
SCLK B12 serial clock
DOUT A18 slave out (MISO)
DIN C17 slave in (MOSI)
PD_n_RST_n B18 power down or restart, active low
BUSY A17 busy aquiring temperature

Peripheral connectors

Two 24-pin peripheral connectors are provided. They comprise 2 power supply pins and 22 FPGA I/O:

Power supplies

The board receives a 5 V power input. 4 DC/DC converters provide power for different components.

FPGA supply

On the FPGA:

  • VCC33 is used by the FPGA for VCCAUX, the SPI flash, the JTAG connector, bank 0 and bank 3
  • VCC18/33 is used for FPGA bank 1
  • VCC25/33 is used for FPGA bank 2
  • VCC12 is used for the FPGA core

Bank 0 connects to the camera and the ADC

Bank 1 is connected to the Gumstix and 1.8 V should be used. The Gumstix board could be replaced by a memory board which might require 3.3 V signalling

Bank 2 connects to the On-Board Computer (OBC). The OBC connector B allows to have SpaceWire differential lines. If so, one has to mount the 165 Ω serial and 140 Ω parallel resistors. Normal CMOS signalling requires 0 Ω serial and no parallel resistors.

Bank 3 connects to the spare connectors on the side of the board.
