TE0320 is provided with a slide switch S2.
Slide switch S2 conditions the value of signal PS_EN.
In this way, S2 conditionally/unconditionally enables the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails.Image Removed

  control.When S2 is turned on (closed, FX2 PON), the power rails 1.2 V and 2.5 V are controlled by the USB (EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2) microcontroller. At start-up, the USB microcontroller switches off the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails and starts up the module in low-power mode. After enumeration, the USB microcontroller firmware enables (switches on) power rails 1.2 V and 2.5 V, if enough current is available from the USB bus. 

When S2 is turned off (open, PON), the 1.2 V and 2.5 V power rails are always enabled (switched on).

VCCIO0 assembly options

According to the corresponding assembly option, power rail VCCCIO0 can depend or not on the power rail 2.5V.

Voltage VccIO for bank B0 shall span from 2.5 V to 3.3 V. VccIO can be supplied either externally or internally to the micromodule.

Warning

Warning!

Spartan-3 I/Os are not 5 V tolerant. Applying more than the recommended operating voltages at any pin, results in a damaged FPGA (see Xilinx Answer AR#19146).

Slide Switch S2 = FX2 PON 

When slide switch S2 is in the left position ( = FX2 PON : power rails conditionally on depending on signal FX2_PS_EN), signal PS_EN is set to signal FX2_PS_EN (PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN) driven by the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller under user control (IOD and OED of fw.c).

1. Dynamic full power operation (PS_EN = 1): when the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller sets signal PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = high, power rails 1.2 V and 2.5 V are enabled.
   This setting can be useful for .
2. Dynamic low power operation (PS_EN = 0): when the EZ-USB FX2LP USB FX2 microcontroller resets signal PS_EN = FX2_PS_EN = low, the following components are switched off:

• • FPGA core logic (1.2V)
  • DDR SDRAM (2.5V)
  • FPGA bank 3 (2.5V)
  • VREF (2.5V)
  • VCCCIO0 (2.5V) FPGA bank 0 (if R131+R132- assembly)

Slide Switch S2 = PON 

Full power operation (PS_EN = 1): when slide switch S2 is in the right position (PON = power rails unconditionally on), signal PS_EN is set to power rail 3.3V. Thus power rails 1.2 V and 2.5 V are unconditionally enabled.Image Removed Image Removed
