Signal PS_EN

  • Signal PS_EN enables (1) or disables (0) power rails 1.2 V and 2.5 V.

VCCIO0 assembly options

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

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).
