Installing the Linux USB Driver
www.elitestek.com 3

Trion T120 BGA576 Development Kit User Guide
The following instructions explain how to install a USB driver for Linux
operating systems.
1. Disconnect your board from your computer.
2. In a terminal, use these commands:
> sudo <installation directory>/bin/install_usb_driver.sh
> sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
Note: If your board was connected to your computer before you executed these
commands, you need to disconnect and re-connect it.
Installing the Windows USB Drivers
Note: If you have another 易灵思 board and are using the Trion® T120 BGA576 Development Board, you must
manage drivers accordingly. Refer to AN 050: Managing Windows Drivers for more information.
On Windows, you use software from Zadig to install drivers. Download the
Zadig software (version 2.7 or later) from zadig.akeo.ie. (You do not need to
install it; simply run the downloaded executable.)
To install the driver:
1. Connect the board to your computer with the appropriate cable and
power it up.
2. Run the Zadig software.
Note: To ensure that the USB driver is persistent across user sessions, run the Zadig
software as administrator.
3. Choose Options > List All Devices.
4. Repeat the following steps for each interface. The interface names end
with (Interface N), where N is the channel number.
●Select libusb-win32 in the Driver drop-down list.
●Click Replace Driver.
5. Close the Zadig software.
Note: This section describes how to install the libusb-win32 driver for each interface separately. If you have
previously installed a composite driver or installed using libusbK drivers, you do not need to update or
reinstall the driver. They should continue to work correctly.

Trion T120 BGA576 Development Kit User Guide
Overview
The board features the 易灵思® T120 programmable device in a 576-ball
FBGA package, which is fabricated using 易灵思® Quantum™ technology. The
Quantum™-accelerated programmable logic and routing fabric is wrapped
with an I/O interface in a small footprint package. T120 devices also include
embedded memory blocks and multiplier blocks (or DSP blocks). You create
designs for the T120 device in the Efinity® software, and then download the
resulting configuration bitstream to the board using the USB connection.
Learn more: For more information on T120 FPGAs, refer to the T120 Data Sheet.

The Trion® T120 BGA576 Development Board provides six 0.8 mm high-speed
ground plane sockets for the MIPI CSI-2 interface and three 0.8 mm high-
speed ground plane sockets for the LVDS transmitters and receivers. It has six
sockets to connect PMOD-compatible peripherals. Additionally, it has a 0.5
mm high-speed connector for additional I/O pins and one 40-pin header for
connecting to a Raspberry Pi computer.
The FTDI FT2232H module has two channels to support SPI (FTDI interface 0)
and JTAG (FTDI interface 1) configuration. It receives the T120 configuration
bitstream from a USB host and writes to the on-board SPI NOR flash memory.
After a reset in SPI passive mode, the FTDI controller can also write the
configuration bitstream directly to the FPGA. Additionally, it supports direct
JTAG programming mode in which it writes the configuration bitstream
directly to the FPGA through the JTAG interface.
Learn more: Refer to AN 006 Configuring Trion FPGAs for more information.
The SPI NOR flash memory stores the configuration bitstream it receives
from the FTDI FT2232H module. The T120 device accesses this configuration
bitstream when it is in active configuration mode (default).
The board's main power supply is the 12 V DC input. Use the included power
supply to provide the board with power through the 12 V input jack. The
recommended power input is a 12 V (5 A minimum) DC power source.
Note: Although the Trion® T120 BGA576 Development Board has a different power-up sequence,
you should follow the power-up sequence in the T20 Data Sheet when designing your own board.
For improved reliability, 易灵思® recommends that you use supervisor IC at CRESET_N explained in
AN 006 Configuring Trion FPGAs.
The board regulates down the 12 V DC input using on-board switching
regulators to provide the necessary voltages for the T120 device, LPDDR3,

Learn more: Refer to the Trion® T120 BGA576 Development Board Schematics and BOM for more
information about the components used in the Trion® T120 BGA576 Development Board.
Power On
To turn on the development board, turn on switch SW17. Upon power-up, the
12 V DC power is input to the on-board regulators through 12 V input jack
(CON1) to generate the required 3.3 V, 2.8 V, 2.5 V, 1.8 V, 1.25 V, and 1.2 V for
components on the board. When these voltages are up and stable, on-board
LEDs (D1, D2, D3, and D4) illuminate, giving you a visual confirmation that
the power supplies on the board are up and stable.
Note: The micro-USB cable cannot power the board. You must use the provided 12 V DC power adapter
cable.
Reset
The T120F576I4 device is typically brought out of reset with the CRESET
signal. Upon power up, the T120F576I4 device is held in reset until CRESET
toggles high-low-high.
Note: You can manually assert the high-low-high transition with pushbutton switch SW2.
CRESET has a pull-up resistor. When you press SW2, the board drives CRESET
low; when you release SW2, the board drives CRESET high. Thus, a single
press of SW2 provides the required high-low-high transition.
After toggling CRESET, the T120F576I4 device goes into configuration mode
and reads the device configuration bitstream from the flash memory. When
configuration completes successfully, the device drives the CDONE signal high.
CDONE is connected to a green LED (D6), which turns on when the T120F576I4
device enters user mode.

Clock Sources
Seven on-board oscillators (10, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, and 74.25 MHz), are
available to drive the T120F576I4 PLL input pin and clock input. The
T120F576I4provides two additional external clock input through the SMA
inputs (J9 and J11). Set the jumper J10 and J12 shown in Header J10 and J12
(Clock and PLL Input Select) on page 21 to select the SMA inputs.
