Programmation

This board can be programmed in 2 ways,

  • first the FPGA can be directly programmed
  • second the FPGA can be programmed via the onboard Flash memory

For more explanation see at the Howto below:

Development

On this page you can starting bouncing ideas, whishes, concerns etc. for the new Board FPGA-RACK.

You can also discuss stuff on the Discussion page

Main Features
  • Big FPGA
  • Size for Rack mounting with big backside connector
    • Usable in Eurocard height Rack
    • Usable in 19" 3U Rack
  • Backside Connector VME Compatible. Description
  • Ethernet
    • 1 or 2 Ports ?
    • 100 or 1000 Mbits
  • USB
  • Board euro Size (100mm*160mm*1.6mm)
Whishes
  • Interchangeable FPGA (FPGA on Piggy Back Board)
    • FMC Connector
  • USB FTDI Chip for FPGA Programming and Data Transfer
    • FT232H or FT2232H
    • there is a project on OpenCores which uses the FT4232H, this might give you some ideas: project page, schematic --Guo 11:45, 30 March 2012 (CEST)
  • Xilinx Spartan 6 >= XC6SLX45 (45K Gates)
Concerns
  • Voltage Level for ADC Connection
  • High Speed Pins >= 66MHz
