Power
The devices on the FOMD-ACV require several power supplies to operate. Some are provided externally through the edge card. Some are derived from the external supply using on-board power supplies.
Fixed Supplies
SUPPLY RAIL | VOLTAGE | TOLERANCE | SOURCE | NOTES / DEVICES |
---|---|---|---|---|
+VDC | +2.8v to +5.5v | Edge card | Must be clean and well-regulated. | |
+2.5VDD | +2.5v | ± 5% | On-board switcher | FPGA PLL / Vccaux supplies |
+1.35VDD | +1.35 | ± 5% | On-board switcher | DDR3 memory and FPGA I/O |
+1.1VDD | +1.1 | ± 0.03v | On-board switcher | FPGA core |
VCCBAT | +1.2 to +3.0 | Edge card | Low-current supply for FPGA volatile storage |
I/O Triples
For each Altera FPGA I/O bank, there are three relevant power supplies. We call these three supplies an I/O Triple. These triples are set according to the I/O standard(s) required for I/O on the bank. Please refer to the extensive Altera documentation for more information on which settings are required for each standard.
- VCCIO – The I/O supply and is set according to the I/O standard selected for the bank.
- VCCPD – The pre-driver voltage for the bank. It is set according to:
- If VCCIO = 3.3v, set VCCPD = 3.3v
- If VCCIO = 3.0v, set VCCPD = 3.0v
- If VCCIO ≤ 2.5v, set VCCPD = 2.5v
- VREF – This is a reference voltage required for some standards. Note that this is not required for many of the supported I/O standards.
Bank Connections
Two I/O supplies are provided on the FOMD edge card, each with a corresponding I/O Triple. Several I/O banks on the FPGA are shared among a single I/O supply on the FOMD edge card.
