Configuration, Status, and Setup Elements
This section describes the board's configuration, status, and setup elements.

Configuration

This section describes the FPGA, flash memory, and MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller device programming methods supported by the Arria V GT FPGA development board.
The Arria V GT FPGA development board supports the following three configuration methods:
On-board USB-Blaster II is the default method for configuring the FPGA at any
time using the Quartus II Programmer in JTAG mode with the supplied USB cable.
External USB-Blaster for configuring the FPGA using an external USB-Blaster that
connects to the JTAG programming header (J1).
Flash memory download for configuring the FPGA using stored images from the
flash memory on either power-up or pressing the program configuration push button,
PGM1_CONFIG
(S3).
FPGA Programming over On-Board USB-Blaster II
This configuration method implements a USB Type-AB connector (J7), a FTDI USB 2.0 PHY device (U5), and an Altera MAX II CPLD (U2) to allow the FPGA configuration using a USB cable that connects directly between the USB port on the board and a USB port of a PC running the Quartus II software.
The on-board USB-Blaster II in the MAX II CPLD EPM570GM100 normally masters the JTAG chain. To prevent contention between the JTAG masters, the on-board USB-Blaster II is automatically disabled when you connect an external USB-Blaster to the JTAG chain through the JTAG connector.
If the USB-Blaster II is detected but no hardware is found in the chain, try reducing the clock frequency of the JTAG chain using these commands:
To check the current setting:
To set a new setting (example clock frequency = 16 M):
<cable-no> JtagClock 16M
The USB-Blaster II needs to be 16 M or slower in this case. Only 6 M, 16 M, and 24 M clock frequency options are available. Insert a value of 1 for the the only JTAG cable you attach to the board.
1 Installing daughtercards such as HSMC or FMC can affect performance and requires a
lower speed.

Flash Memory Programming
Flash memory programming is possible through a variety of methods.
The default method is to use the factory design—Board Update Portal (BUP). This design is an embedded webserver, which serves the BUP web page. The web page allows you to select new FPGA designs including hardware, software, or both in an industry-standard S-Record File (.flash) and write the design to the user hardware page (page 1) of the flash memory over the network.
The secondary method is to use the pre-built parallel flash loader (PFL) design included in the development kit. The development board implements the Altera PFL megafunction for flash memory programming. The PFL megafunction is a block of logic that is programmed into an Altera programmable logic device (FPGA or CPLD). The PFL functions as a utility for writing to a compatible flash memory device. This pre-built design contains the PFL megafunction that allows you to write either page 0, page 1, or other areas of flash memory over the USB interface using the Quartus II software. This method is used to restore the development board to its factory default settings.
Other methods to program the flash memory can be used as well, including the

II processor.

the Altera website.
FPGA Programming from Flash Memory
On either power-up or by pressing the program configuration push button,

PCI Express

The Arria V GT FPGA development board is designed to fit entirely into a PC motherboard with a ×8 PCI Express slot that can accommodate a full height long form factor add-in card. This interface uses the Arria V GT FPGA's PCI Express hard IP block, saving logic resources for the user logic application. The PCI express edge connector has a presence detect feature to allow the motherboard to determine if a card is installed.
f For more information on using the PCI Express hard IP block, refer to the PCI Express
Compiler User Guide.
The PCI Express interface supports auto-negotiating channel width from ×1 to ×4 to ×8 by using Altera's PCIe MegaCore IP. You can also configure this board to a ×1, ×4, or ×8 interface through a DIP switch that connects the
The PCI Express edge connector has a connection speed of 2.5 Gbps/lane for a maximum of 20 Gbps full-duplex (Gen1) or 5.0 Gbps/lane for a maximum of 40 Gbps full-duplex (Gen2).

Components and Interfaces
The power for the board can be sourced entirely from the PCI Express edge connector when installed into a PC motherboard. Although the board can also be powered by a laptop power supply for use on a lab bench, Altera recommends that you do not power up from both supplies at the same time. Ideal diode power sharing devices have been designed into this board to prevent damages or back-current from one supply to the other.
The
PCIE_REFCLK_P
signal is a 100 MHz differential input that is driven from the PC motherboard on to this board through the edge connector. This signal connects directly to a Arria V GT FPGA
REFCLK
input pin pair using DC coupling. This clock is terminated on the motherboard and therefore, no on-board termination is required. This clock can have spread-spectrum properties that change its period between
9.847 ps to 10.203 ps. The I/O standard is High-Speed Current Steering Logic (HCSL).
Figure 2–8 shows the PCI Express reference clock levels.
Figure 2–8. PCI Express Reference Clock Levels
The JTAG and SMB are optional signals in the PCI Express specification. Therefore, the JTAG signal loopback from PCI Express TDI to PCI Express TDO and are not used on this board. The SMB signals are wired to the Arria V GT FPGA but are not required for normal operation.

10/100/1000 Ethernet

This development board supports 10/100/1000 base-T Ethernet using an external Marvell 88E1111 PHY and Altera Triple-Speed Ethernet MegaCore MAC function. The PHY-to-MAC interface employs RGMII using the Arria V GT FPGA LVDS pins in Soft-CDR mode at 1.25 Gbps transmit and receive. In 10-Mb or 100-Mb mode, the RGMII interface still runs at 1.25 GHz but the packet data is repeated 10 or 100 times. The MAC function must be provided in the FPGA for typical networking applications.
The Marvell 88E1111 PHY uses 2.5-V and 1.0-V power rails and requires a 25 MHz reference clock driven from a dedicated oscillator. The PHY interfaces to a HALO HFJ11-1G02E model RJ45 with internal magnetics that can be used for driving copper lines with Ethernet traffic.
Figure 2–9 shows the RGMII interface between the FPGA (MAC) and Marvell 88E1111
PHY.

I/O Standard Description
Bias voltage for the Ethernet PHY. This pin connects to ground through a 4.99-K resistor.

HSMC

The development board contains two HSMC interfaces—port A on device 1 and port B on device 2. HSMC port A and port B interfaces support both single-ended and differential signaling. This physical interface provides eight channels of
6.5536 Gbps-capable transceivers for the GT version of this board. The HSMC interface also supports a full SPI4.2 interface (17 LVDS channels), three input and output clocks, JTAG and SMB signals, as well as power for compatible HSMC cards. The LVDS channels can be used for CMOS signaling as well as LVDS.
1 The HSMC is an Altera-developed open specification, which allows you to expand
the functionality of the development board through the addition of daughtercards (HSMCs).

f For more information about the HSMC specification such as signaling standards,
signal integrity, compatible connectors, and mechanical information, refer to the High
Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) Specification manual.
The HSMC connector has a total of 172 pins, including 120 signal pins, 39 power pins, and 13 ground pins. The ground pins are located between the two rows of signal and power pins, acting both as a shield and a reference. The HSMC host connector is based on the 0.5 mm-pitch QSH/QTH family of high-speed, board-to-board connectors from Samtec. There are three banks in this connector. Bank 1 has every third pin removed as done in the QSH-DP/QTH-DP series. Bank 2 and bank 3 have all the pins populated as done in the QSH/QTH series.
Figure 2–10 shows the bank arrangement of signals with respect to the Samtec
connector's three banks.

The HSMC interface has programmable bi-directional I/O pins that can be used as
2.5-V LVCMOS, which is 3.3-V LVTTL-compatible. These pins can also be used as various differential I/O standards including, but not limited to, LVDS, mini-LVDS, and RSDS with up to 17 full-duplex channels.
1 As noted in the High Speed Mezzanine Card (HSMC) Specification manual, LVDS and
single-ended I/O standards are only guaranteed to function when mixed according to either the generic single-ended pin-out or generic differential pin-out.

SFP+ Modules

The development board include two SFP+ modules that use transceiver channels from the FPGA. These modules takes in serial data from the FPGA and transform them into optical signals. Both SFP+ ports are active and include the SFP+ cage assembly only when the Arria V GT FPGA device is installed.
1 The Arria V GX FPGA development board includes only one SFP+ cage assembly for
the SFP+ port used by the device.
Tab le 2 –2 8 list the SFP+ modules interface pin assignments, signal names, and

I/O Standard Description

FMC Connector

The development board contains a high pin count (HPC) FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) connector that functions with a quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) digital-to-analog converter (DAC) FMC module or daughter card. This pinout satisfies a QAM DAC that requires 58 LVDS data output pairs, one LVDS input clock pair, and three low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) control pairs from the Arria V. These pins also have the option to be used as single-ended I/O pins. The VCCIO supply for the FMC A banks in the low pin count (LPC) and HPC provide a variable voltage of 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V (default), or 3.3 V. The VCCIO supply for the FMC B bank in the HPC provides a variable voltage from 1.2 V to 3.3 V, which can be supplied by the FMC module. However, for the sake of device safety concerns, a jumper is available for you to connect this bank to the same VCCIO used for the FMC A banks. This allows the VCCIO pins on the FPGA to be tied to a known power. The VCCIO pins also allows you the option to perform a manual check for the module’s input voltage before connecting to the FPGA. This is to ensure that the module does not exceed the power supply maximum voltage rating.
Tab le 2 –2 9 lists the FMC connector pin assignments, signal names, and functions.

Bull's Eye Connector

The development board comes with Samtec's Bull's Eye system, which includes four SMA cables along with the insertion tool to insert the cables into the connector.
The Bull's Eye high-density RF interconnect system allows many channels to be compacted into a small area on a printed circuit board at a comparable performance to SMA connectors. The cables allow you to monitor only two differential signals at a time. You can move the cables from one channel to another using the tool included with this board.

I/O Standard Description
DDR3B/C for FPGA 2
The development board supports a 16Mx64x8 bank DDR3 SDRAM interface on FPGA 2 for very high-speed sequential memory access. The 64-bit data bus consists of four x16 devices with a single address or command bus. This interface connects to the vertical I/O banks on the top edge of the FPGA.
This DDR3 SDRAM has two interface options. The first option is a x32 interface using a memory hard controller. The second option is a x64 interface using a memory soft controller.
Tab le 2 –3 2 lists the DDR3B (x32 hard controller) pin assignments, signal names, and
functions. The signal names and types are relative to the Arria V GT FPGA in terms of I/O setting and direction.

I/O Standard Description
Power Supply
A laptop style DC power input provides power to the development board. The input voltage must be in the range of 14 V to 20 V. The DC voltage is then stepped down to various power rails used by the board components and installed into the HSMC connectors.
An on-board multi-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) measures both the voltage and current for several specific board rails. The power utilization is displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) that can graph power consumption versus time.

Power Measurement

There are 16 power supply rails that have on-board voltage, current, and wattage sense capabilities using 24-bit differential ADC devices. Precision sense resistors split the ADC devices and rails from the primary supply plane for the ADC to measure voltage and current. A SPI bus connects these ADC devices to the MAX II CPLD EPM2210 System Controller as well as the Arria V GT FPGA.
Figure 2–13 shows the block diagram for the power measurement circuitry.
Figure 2–13. Power Measurement Circuit
Tab le 2 –3 6 lists the targeted rails. The schematic signal name column specifies the
name of the rail being measured while the device pin column specifies the devices attached to the rail. If no subnet is named, the power is the total output power for that voltage.
