Electrostatic Discharge Caution
Caution! ESD can damage electronic components when they are improperly handled, and can
result in total or intermittent failures. Always follow ESD-prevention procedures when removing
and replacing components.
To prevent ESD damage:
•Use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes skin contact. Connect the equipment
end of the strap to an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.
•Avoid touching the adapter against your clothing. The wrist strap protects components from
ESD on the body only.
•Handle the adapter by its bracket or edges only. Avoid touching the printed circuit board or the
connectors.
•Put the adapter down only on an antistatic surface such as the bag supplied in your kit.
•If you are returning the adapter to Xilinx Product Support, place it back in its antistatic bag
immediately.
•If a wrist strap is not available, ground yourself by touching the metal chassis before handling
the adapter or any other part of the computer/server.

USB JTAG Module
[Figure 1-2, callout 5]
JTAG configuration is provided through a Digilent onboard USB-to-JTAG configuration logic
module (U26) where a host computer accesses the AC701 board JTAG chain through a standard-A
plug (host side) to micro-B plug (AC701 board side) USB cable.
A 2-mm JTAG header (J4) is also provided in parallel for access by Xilinx download cables such as
the Platform Cable USB II and the Parallel Cable IV.
The JTAG chain of the AC701 board is illustrated in Figure 1-8. JTAG configuration is allowed at
any time regardless of FPGA mode pin settings. JTAG initiated configuration takes priority over the
configuration method selected through the FPGA mode pin settings at SW1.

Figure 1-8: JTAG Chain Block Diagram
When an FMC card is attached to the AC701 board, it is automatically added to the JTAG chain
through electronically controlled single-pole single-throw (SPST) switch U27. The SPST switch is
in a normally closed state and transitions to an open state when an FMC card is attached. Switch
U27 adds an attached FMC HPC mezzanine card to the FPGAs JTAG chain as determined by the
FMC_HPC_PRSNT_M2C_B signal. The attached FMC card must implement a TDI-to-TDO
connection through a device or bypass jumper in order for the JTAG chain to be completed to the
FPGA U1.

The JTAG connectivity on the AC701 board allows a host computer to download bitstreams to the
FPGA using Xilinx software tools. In addition, the JTAG connector allows debug tools or a software
debugger to access the FPGA. Xilinx software tools can also indirectly program the Quad SPI flash
memory. To accomplish this, Xilinx software configures the FPGA with a temporary design to
access and program the Quad SPI flash memory device. The JTAG circuit is shown in

USB-to-UART Bridge
[Figure 1-2, callout 16]
The AC701 board contains a Silicon Labs CP2103GM USB-to-UART bridge device (U44) which
allows a connection to a host computer with a USB port. The USB cable is supplied in the evaluation
kit (standard-A plug to host computer, mini-B plug to AC701 board connector J17). The
CP2103GM is powered by the USB 5V provided by the host PC when the USB cable is plugged into
the USB port on the AC701 board.
Xilinx UART IP is expected to be implemented in the FPGA logic. The FPGA supports the
USB-to-UART bridge using four signal pins: Transmit (TX), Receive (RX), Request to Send (RTS),
and Clear to Send (CTS).
Silicon Labs provides royalty-free Virtual COM Port (VCP) drivers for the host computer. These
drivers permit the CP2103GM USB-to-UART bridge to appear as a COM port to communications
application software (for example, Tera Term or HyperTerm) that runs on the host computer. The
VCP device drivers must be installed on the host PC prior to establishing communications with the
AC701 board.

Switches
[Figure 1-2, callout 26–27]
The AC701 board includes a power and a configuration switch:
•Power on/off slide switch SW15 (callout 26)
•FPGA_PROGRAM_B SW14, active-Low (callout 27)
Power On/Off Slide Switch SW15
[Figure 1-2, callout 26]
The AC701 board power switch is SW15. Sliding the switch actuator from the Off to On position
applies 12V power from J49, a 6-pin mini-fit connector. Green LED DS22 illuminates when the
AC701 board power is on. See
Caution! Do NOT plug a PC ATX power supply 6-pin connector into J49 on the AC701 board
The ATX 6-pin connector has a different pinout than J49. Connecting an ATX 6-pin connector
into J49 damages the AC701 board and voids the board warranty.
Figure 1-38 shows the simplified diagram of the power connector J49, power switch SW15 and
indicator LED DS22.

Configuration Mode Switch SW1
The AC701 board supports two of the five 7 series FPGA configuration modes:
•Master SPI flash memory using the onboard Quad SPI flash memory
•JTAG using a standard-A to micro-B USB cable for connecting the host PC to the AC701
board configuration port (on the Digilent module)
Each configuration interface corresponds to one or more configuration modes and bus widths as
listed in
respectively, as shown in Figure 1-41.
Note: On the AC701 board, SW1 switch position 2 is not used.

FPGA Mezzanine Card Interface
[Figure 1-2, callout 29]
The AC701 board supports the VITA 57.1 FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) specification by providing
high pin count (HPC) connector J30. HPC J30 is keyed so that a the mezzanine card faces away from
the AC701 board when connected.
The Samtec connector system is rated for signaling speeds up to 9 GHz (18 Gb/s) based on a –3 dB
insertion loss point within a two-level signaling environment.

Monitoring Voltage and Current
Voltage and current monitoring and voltage control are available for the TI controlled power rails
through the Texas Instruments Fusion Digital Power Designer GUI. The two onboard TI
UCD90120A power controllers (U8 at PMBus address 101 and U9 at address 102) are wired to the
same PMBus. The PMBus connector, J2, is provided for use with the TI USB Interface Adapter
PMBus pod (TI part number EVM USB-TO-GPIO) and associated TI Fusion Digital Power
Designer GUI. This is the simplest and most convenient way to monitor the voltage and current
values for the power rail listed in
Record 54022.
In Table 1-28 and Table 1-29 (one per controller), the Power Good (PG) On Threshold is the
set-point at or above which the particular rail is deemed good. The PG Off Threshold is the set-point
at or below which the particular rail is no longer deemed good. The controller internally ORs these
PG conditions together and drives an output PG pin High only if all active rail PG states are good.
The on and off delay parameter values are relative to when the board power on-off slide switch
SW15 is turned on and off.
Table 1-28 defines the voltage and current values for each power rail controlled by the UCD90120A
U8 controller at PMBus Address 101.
Table 1-28: Power Rail Specifications for UCD90120A PMBus Controller U8 at Address 101
Table 1-28 and Tab le 1-29. For more information, see Answer
The FMC VCCO_VADJ rail is set to 2.5V. When the AC701 board is powered on, the state of the
FMC_VADJ_ON_B signal wired to header J8 is sampled by the TI UCD90120A controller U9. If a
jumper is installed on J8, signal FMC_VADJ_ON_B is held low, and TI controller U9 energizes the
FMC VCCO_VADJ rail at power on.
Removing the jumper at J8 after the board is powered up does not affect the 2.5V power delivered
to the VCCO_VADJ rail and it remains on.
A jumper installed at J8 is the default setting. If a jumper is not installed on J8 at power on, the signal
FMC_VADJ_ON_B is High and the AC701 board does not energize the VCCO_VADJ 2.5V power.
Installing a jumper at J8 after the AC701 board powers up in this mode turns on the VCCO_VADJ
rail.
In this VCCO_VADJ off mode, you can control when to turn on VCCO_VADJ and to what voltage
level (1.8V, 2.5V or 3.3V).
With VCCO_VADJ off, the FPGA still configures and has access to the TI controller PMBus and the
VADJ_ON_B signal which are wired to FPGA U1 Bank 14. The combination of these features
allows youto develop code to command the VCCO_VADJ rail to be set to 1.8V or 3.3V instead of
the default setting of 2.5V.
See AC701 board schematic page 46 for a brief discussion concerning selectable VCCO_VADJ
voltages. The important controller-to-regulator circuit signals are VCCO_VADJ_EN and
FMC_ADJ_SEL[1:0]. In the VCCO_VADJ off mode, controller U9 does not toggle the regulator
turn-on signal VCCO_VADJ_EN High, so the U56 regulator stays off. You must re-program the
controller U9 VCCO_VADJ rail settings to the desired VCCO_VADJ voltage so that the controller
expects the new voltage to appear on its MON1 remote sense pin. The FMC_ADJ_SEL[1:0]
controller GPIO16 and GPIO17 pins must be set to the correct logic levels to force the
VCCO_VADJ regulator Reset MUX U64 to select the appropriate RT_CLK and VADJ resistors for
the desired voltage as shown in
Table 1-30.

When the new VCCO_VADJ rail settings and Reset MUX logic levels are programmed into
controller U9, the FMC_VADJ_ON_B signal can be driven Low by user FPGA logic and the
controller toggles the VCCO_VADJ_EN signal High to allow the rail to come up at the new
VCCO_VADJ voltage level.

Cooling Fan Control
Cooling fan RPM is controlled and monitored by user-created IP in the FPGA using the fan control
circuit is shown in
FPGA U1 can be cooled by a user-supplied 12V DC fan connected to J61. 12VDC is provided to the
fan through J61 pin 2. The fan GND return is provided through J61 pin 1 and transistor Q17. Fan
speed is controlled by a pulse-width-modulated signal from FPGA U1 pin J26 (on Bank 15) driving
the gate of Q17. The default unprogrammed FPGA fan operation mode is ON. The fan speed
tachometer signal on J61 pin 3 can be monitored on FPGA U1 pin J25 (on Bank 15).

The UCD90120A device is configured by using the PC-based TI Fusion Digital Power Designer
software. This software provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for configuring, storing, and
monitoring power system operating parameters.
LMZ31500 Family Regulator Description
The LMZ31506RUQ (6A) and LMZ31503RUQ (3A) regulators are integrated synchronous buck
switching regulators that combines a DC/DC converter with power MOSFETs, an inductor, and
passives into low profile, BQFN packages. The LMZ3150x devices accept an input voltage rail
between 4.5V and 14.5V and deliver an adjustable output voltage in the 0.6V to 5.5V range. This
type of power solution allows as few as three external components and eliminates the loop
compensation and magnetic parts selection process.

LMZ31700 Family Regulator Description
The LMZ31710 power module is a step-down DC-DC switching regulator capable of driving up to
10A load. The LMZ31710 can accept an input voltage rail between 4.5V and 17V, and deliver an
adjustable and highly accurate output voltage as low as 0.6V. The LMZ31710 requires two external
resistors and external capacitors to complete the design. The LMZ31710 is a reliable and robust
design with these protection features: thermal shutdown, programmable input under-voltage
lockout, output over-voltage protection, short-circuits protection, output current limit, and allows
start -up into a pre-biased output. The sync input allows synchronization over the 200
1200
kHz switching frequency range and up to six modules can be connected in parallel for higher
load currents.

The LMZ31503 and LMZ31700 family adjustable voltage regulators have their output voltage set
by an external resistor. The regulator topology on the AC701 board permits the UCD90120A to
monitor rail voltage and current. Voltage margining at +5% and -5% is also implemented.
Each voltage regulator external V
setting resistor is calculated and implemented as if the
OUT
regulator is standalone. The UCD90120A has two ADC inputs allocated per voltage rail, one input
for the remote voltage sense connection, the other for the current sense resistor op amp output
voltage connection. The UCD90120A ADC full scale input is 2.5V. The remote voltage feedback is
scaled to approximately 2V if it exceeds 2V—that is, the VCCO_VADJ rail for the 2.5V and 3.3V
modes, and the FPGA_3V3 rail also at 3.3V are resistor attenuated to scale the remotely sensed
voltage at 0.606 to give approximately 2V at the ADC input pin for a 3.3V remote sense value. Rails
below 2V are not scaled.
Each rail current sense op amp has its gain set to provide approximately 2V maximum at the TI
UCD90120A ADC input pin when the rail current is at its expected maximum current level, as
shown in
The UCD90120A has an assignable group of GPIO pins with PWM capability. Each controller
channel has a PWM GPIO pin connected to the associated voltage regulator V
V
setting resistor is also wired to this pin. The PWM GPIO pin is configured in 3-state mode.
OUT
This pin is not driven unless a Margin command is executed. The Margin command is available
within the TI Fusion Digital Power Designer software.
During the margin high or low operation, the PWM GPIO pin drives a voltage into the voltage
regulator V
pin, which causes a slight voltage change resulting in the regulator V
ADJ
the margin +5% or -5% voltage commanded.
XADC Power System Measurement
The AC701 board XADC interface includes power system voltage and current measuring capability.
The V
measurement capability. Other rails are measured through two external Analog Devices
ADG707BRU multiplexers U14 and U13. Each rail has a TI INA333 op amp strapped across its
series current sense resistor Kelvin terminals. This op amp has its gain adjusted to give
approximately 1V at the expected full scale current value for the rail.

Feature Descriptions
For external measurements, an XADC header (J19) is provided. This header can be used to provide
analog inputs to the FPGA dedicated VP/VN channel, and to the VAUXP[0]/VAUXN[0],
VAUXP[8]/VAUXN[8] auxiliary analog input channels. Simultaneous sampling of Channel 0 and
Channel 8 is supported.
A user-provided analog signal multiplexer card can be used to sample additional external analog
inputs using the four GPIO pins available on the XADC header as multiplexer address lines.
Figure 1-48 shows the XADC header J19 connections.

Markings
In August of 2005, the European Union (EU) implemented the EU WEEE Directive 2002/96/EC and
later the WEEE Recast Directive 2012/19/EU requiring Producers of electronic and electrical
equipment (EEE) to manage and finance the collection, reuse, recycling and to appropriately treat
WEEE that the Producer places on the EU market after August 13, 2005. The goal of this directive is
to minimize the volume of electrical and electronic waste disposal and to encourage re-use and
recycling at the end of life.
Xilinx has met its national obligations to the EU WEEE Directive by registering in those countries to
which Xilinx is an importer. Xilinx has also elected to join WEEE Compliance Schemes in some
countries to help manage customer returns at end-of-life.
If you have purchased Xilinx-branded electrical or electronic products in the EU and are intending to
discard these products at the end of their useful life, please do not dispose of them with your other
household or municipal waste. Xilinx has labeled its branded electronic products with the WEEE
Symbol to alert our customers that products bearing this label should not be disposed of in a landfill or
with municipal or household waste in the EU.
This product complies with Directive 2002/95/EC on the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS)
in electrical and electronic equipment.
This product complies with CE Directives 2006/95/EC, Low Voltage Directive (LVD) and
2004/108/EC, Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) Directive.
