TE0717 Getting Started Guide

Revision History

Overview

This guide showcases the important components of the module-carrier combination TE0717 + TEB0717 and introduces the available script-based reference design to get the board up and running.

What will be presented in this Getting Started Guide?

The module TE0717 has a Xilinx Spartan-7 FPGA onboard that allows you create digital hardware and software designs.

Most of the FPGA IOs are accessible via the pins surrounding the carrier. The TE0717 is assembled with HyperRAM(64 Mbit of memory), QSPI non-volatile Flash memory(64 Mbit) and plenty of IOs which enable great hardware expandability. For communication and configuration the carrier offers a JTAG/UART Interface.

4 TE0717 Hardware Setup

1. Before connecting the Board to the PC, make sure to properly mount the module TE0717 on the carrier TEB0717 via the B2B connector like in Figure 1.
2. Next step: Check the Jumper setting
   
   
   

   The Voltage set with Jumper J1 determines the source of the input voltage for the voltages regulator chip U1. Either 5V from the MicroUSB port or 5V from pin header J4.

   With Jumper J2 the voltage VADJ is set to 3.3V that comes from the carriers voltage regulator chip U1. The 1.8V comes from the module. The Voltage VADJ is wired to the module and is used as the BANK34 supply voltage.

3. Use a MicroUSB cable to connect your board to the PC.

4. All the LEDs are simply routed to the FPGA, hence none of them should be turned on. If the qspi flash on the module is preloaded with a design though, it might be that some leds are blinking. The leds are connected to the FPGA as following:
   Information on signals and FPGA pins can be found in the schematics, Table 1:

   LED	Color	Signal	FPGA Pin	Function
   D1(on carrier)	red	B14_L24_P	P10	general purpose
   D2(on carrier)	green	B14_L24_N	P11	"
   D1(on module)	red	LED1	D14	"
   D2(on module)	green	LED2	C14	"
