2 Installation
2.1 Handling Instructions
he components on this board can be damaged by electrostatic discharge (ESD). o prevent damage, observe
ESD precautions:
- Always wear a wrist-strap when handling the card
- Hold the board by the edges
- Avoid touching any components
- Store in ESD safe bag.
2.2 Hardware Installation
2.2.1 System Requirements

Alpha Data offers a Rear ransition Module (R M) that breaks out all P2 IO and P1 control lanes (Part number:
ADM-VPX3-9Z2-R M).
2.2.2 Cooling Requirements
he power dissipation of the board is highly dependent on the FPGA application. A power estimator spreadsheet
is available on request from Alpha Data. his should be used in conjunction with Xilinx power estimation tools to
determine the approximate current requirements for each power rail.
he board is supplied with a passive air cooled or conduction cooled heatsink according to the order number
given at time of purchase. It is the users responsibility to ensure sufficient airflow for air cooled applications and
appropriate metalwork for conduction cooled applications.
he board features system monitoring that measures the board and FPGA temperature. It also includes a
self-protection mechanism that will clear the target FPGA configuration if an over-temperature condition is
detected.
See Section System Monitoring for health monitoring details.

3.2.1 SYSRESET#
VPX Reset In. his signal is an active low input from the system. When asserted, the PS PCIe interface will be
reset.
he SYSRESE # signal is translated to 1.8V levels and connected to the FPGA at MIO pin J22.
3.2.2 AUXCLK
Auxiliary Clock. his clock is a direct input to the target FPGA. In OpenVPX this clock line is used for 1PPS
synchronization signaling. he prefered signaling standard is LVDS.

AUXCLK_N is connected to FPGA GC pin D22
3.2.3 REFCLK
Reference Clock. his clock is an input to the onboard clock distribution and generation system. he 50MHz

3.3.1 LVDS
he GPIO on P2 is compatible with 2.5V signaling such as LVDS and 2.5V single ended signals.
hese signals are routed differentially. he FPGA is protected from inappropriate signal levels by a low
resistance quick switch that clamps at 2.5V in either direction, but can accept up to 3.3V on an input.

If the boundary scan chain is connected to the interface at the VPX backplane (SW3-5 is ON), header J2 should
not be used.
3.4.2 VPX Interface
he J AG interface on the VPX backplane is normally unused. When SW3-5 is OFF (default), all J AG signals to
P0 are left floating.
he J AG interface can be connected to the VPX Backplane (through level-translators) by switching SW3-5 ON.
3.4.3 JTAG Voltages
he on-board J AG scan chain uses 3.3V. he Vcc supply provided on J2 to the J AG cable is +3.3V and is
protected by a poly fuse rated at 350mA.
he J AG signals at the VPX interface use 3.3V signal levels and are connected through buffers to the on-board
scan chain.
he J AG signals at the FMC interface also use 3.3V signal levels and are connected through buffers to FMC
boards scan chain.

3.5.8 USB_REFCLK24M
he USB PHY and hub are provided with an independent 24.0MHz reference clock. his clock is asynchronous
to the clocks generated by the Si5338B and is not connected to the Zynq SoC.
3.5.9 ETH_CLK25M
he Ethernet PHYs are provided with an independant 25.0MHz reference clock. his clock is asynchronous to
the clocks generated by the Si5338B and is not connected to the Zynq SoC..
3.6 Resets
he Zynq PS can be reset via the two push button switches, SW1 and SW2.
Switch Reset ype Effect
SW1 Power on Reset
(PS_POR_B pin) Clears all logic. Mode pins sampled (i.e. reconfigures hardware). Reboots
MPSoC.
SW2 Soft Reset
(PS_SRS _B pin) Same as Power on Reset - but does not sample Mode pins (hardware
configuration unchanged).

3.7.2 PS Memory Interfaces
he memory devices attached to the PS side of the MPSoC are outlined below.
3.7.2.1 Quad SPI Flas Memory
he ADM-VPX3-9Z2 has two Quad SPI Flash devices, up to 2Gb each. hey can be interfaced seperately in x1,
x2,x4 modes or together in x8 mode.
