carefully.
Powering the Evaluation Board
Runningthepre-loadeddemonstrationdoesnotrequireconnectingtheprovidedUSBcabletoa
PC.TheUSBcableisrequiredtomodifythepre-loadeddemo,interfacetoadvanceddemos,or
loadpre-congureddesigns.DonotplugtheUSBcableintothePCuntilafterloadingLattice’s
USBdrivers(includedwithispVM).Thedefaultoperatingsystemdriversarenotcompatiblewith
Latticeprogrammingtools.

Power Manager II Hercules Demos:
• Default State–WithdemoDIPswitchessetasshown(all0’s)theLCDwillcyclethroughitsself-
testsequencealongwiththePLDoutputLEDs.Thisisthedefault(shipped)turn-oncondition.
•Demo 1: Switching Power Supply Trim–ThePowerManagerIITrim-DACoutputtrimsthe
1.2Vsupplytobetterthan1%ofitsfactorysetvalue.ThisisdonebytheispPAC®-POWR1220AT8
andMachXO™usinganexternalclosedlooptrimtoadjustthefeedbackintotheregulatortrim
pin.TheLCDdisplaystheoutputvoltageofthe1.2VswitchingregulatoratVMON1usingthe
ADCinthePOWR1220AT8.Pressingandholdingdownthemode(SW3)switchchangesthetrim
modefromclosedlooptoopenloop.Inthismode,theTrim-DACoutputissettoaxed(stored)
digitalvaluewhichisselectedbytheVoltageProleSelectpinsofthePowerManagerII.
•Demo 2: Power Supply Margin Down–WithdemoDIPswitchessetasshown,thesupplyis
trimmedto-7.5%ofitsfactoryvalue(1.2V-0.09V=1.11V)usingclosedlooptrim.VMON1is
chosentomeasurethe1.2VDC-DCpowersupplyandthevalueisreadbythePOWR1220AT8
ADCanddisplayedontheLCD.Pressingthemodeswitchresultsinthetrimmodeswitching
fromclosedlooptoopenlooptrim.Thismeanstheoutputissettoaxed(stored)digitalvalue
and will not be as accurate as closed loop trim.
•Demo 2a: Power Supply Margin Up–WithdemoDIPswitchessetasshown,thesupplyis
trimmedto+7.5%ofitsfactoryvalue(1.2V+0.09V=1.29V)usingclosedlooptrim.VMON1
ischosentomeasurethe1.2VDC-DCpowersupplyandthevalueisreadbythePOWR1220AT8
ADCanddisplayedontheLCD.Pressingthemodeswitchresultsinthetrimmodeswitching
fromclosedlooptoopenlooptrim.Thismeanstheoutputissettoaxed(stored)digitalvalue
and will not be as accurate as closed loop trim.
•Demo 3: 12V Voltage–ThisisaPOWR1220AT8-enabledversionoftheinput12V.Theinput
12Vcancomefromthe12Vwallpluginputoranexternalsource.ThisvoltageexceedsVMON’s
6Vmaximuminputlimit.Anintermediatevoltageiscreatedbydividingbya4:1resistordivider
network.TheintermediatevoltageisreadatVMON11andappliedtotheinternalADCformea-
surement.Themeasuredvalueisthendigitallymultipliedby4anddisplayedontheLCD.
•Demo 4: Power Supply Fault Monitoring – The slider potentiometer simulates an over/under
voltageconditionona2.5VpowersupplyandismonitoredbyVMON9.Thefullrangeofvoltage
is0Vto3.25V.TheLCDdisplaysthevoltage.VMON9isconguredinthePowerManagerII
in“window”modewithalowertrippointof0.75Vandanuppertrippointof2.25V.Whenthe
voltageatVMON9isabovetheupperorbelowthelowertrippointafaultisdetectedbythe
PowerManagerII.ThesefaultsaredetectedandcountedforreadoutinDemo4a.Cyclingboard
power will also result in a fault being recorded. Note: These faults were not programmed to cause
a PWR_GOOD failure.
•Demo 4a: Fault Logging–TheLCDdisplaysthetotalcountoffaultsrecordedbythePower
ManagerIIandMachXO.Pressingthemodeswitch(SW3)clearsalltherecordedfaults.Faults
aredetectedbythePowerManagerIIwhenthesliderpotentiometerisoutsidethewindowlimits
(seeDemo4)orwhenpowerisremovedfromtheboard.
•Demos 5 and 5a: VID Voltage–TheTrim-DACoutputofthePowerManagerIIisusedtostep
the1.2VDC-DCsupplybasedonthevalueoftheVID-DIPswitches.Switches3-0providea
4-bitunsignedbinaryvaluerangingfrom0-15.Thisvalueismultipliedby10mVandaddedto,
orsubtractedfrom,thenominal1.2VbasedonthepolarityofdemoDIPswitch4.Forexample,
0000b=0*10mV=0V,0100b=4*10mV=40mV,1000b=8*10mV=80mV;1100b=12*10mV=120mV.
