Installation of the VCU118 board inside a computer chassis is required when developing or
testing PCI Express® functionality.
When the VCU118 board is used inside a computer chassis (that is, plugged in to the PCIe®
slot), power is provided from the ATX power supply 4-pin peripheral connector through the
ATX adapter cable (Figure 2-3) to J15 on the VCU118 board. The Xilinx part number for this
cable is 2600304. See [Ref 29] for ordering information.

To install the VCU118 board in a PC chassis:
1. On the VCU118 board, remove the six screws retaining the six rubber feet with their
standoffs, and the PCIe bracket. Reinstall the PCIe bracket using two of the previously
removed screws.
2. Power down the host computer and remove the power cord from the PC.
3. Open the PC chassis following the instructions provided with the PC.
4. Select a vacant PCIe expansion slot and remove the expansion cover (at the back of the
chassis) by removing the screws on the top and bottom of the cover.

5. The VCU118 board requires three adjacent PCIe slots. The VCU118 board has a large
cooling fan that exceeds the PCIe top side component height restriction and has several
spring loaded screws on the back side of the board. Ensure the slots closest to the front
and back of the board are free of obstructions.
6. Plug the VCU118 board into the center of the three open slots.
7. Install the top mounting bracket screw into the PC expansion cover retainer bracket to
secure the VCU118 board in its slot.
8. Connect the ATX power supply to the VCU118 board using the ATX power supply
adapter cable as shown in Figure 2-3.
a. Plug the 6-pin 2 x 3 Molex connector on the adapter cable into J15 on the VCU118
board.
b. Plug the 4-pin 1 x 4 peripheral power connector from the ATX power supply into the
4-pin adapter cable connector.
CAUTION! Do NOT plug a PC ATX power supply 6-pin connector into J15 on the VCU118 evaluation
board. The ATX 6-pin connector has a different pin out than J15. Connecting an ATX 6-pin connector
into J15 damages the VCU118 evaluation board and voids the board warranty.
9. Slide the VCU118 board power switch SW1 to the ON position. The PC can now be
powered on.
FPGA Configuration
The VCU118 board supports two of the seven UltraScale FPGA configuration modes:
•Master BPI using the onboard linear BPI flash memory
•JTAG using:
USB JTAG configuration port (Digilent module U115)
°
Platform cable USB 2.0, 2 mm, keyed flat cable header (J3)
°
Each configuration interface corresponds to one or more configuration modes and bus
widths, as listed in Table 2-4. The mode switches M2, M1, and M0 are on SW16 positions 2,
3, and 4, respectively. The FPGA default mode setting M[2:0] = 101 selects the JTAG
configuration mode.

DDR4 Component Memory
[Figure 2-1, callout 4]
The 2.5 GB DDR4 component memory system is comprised of two sets of five 256 Mb x 16
(80-bit wide) DDR4 SDRAM devices (Micron MT40A256M16GE-075E) located at U60-U64
(C1) and U135-U139 (C2). This dual memory system is connected in 80-bit wide interfaces
to the U1 XCVU9P HP banks 71, 72, 73 (C1) and 40, 41, 42 (C2). The DDR4 0.6V VTT
termination voltages (nets DDR4_C1_VTT and DDR4_C2_VTT) are sourced from the TI
TPS51200DR linear regulators U24 and U134. The DDR4 memory interface bank VREF pins
are not connected, which, coupled with an XDC set_property INTERNAL_VREF constraint,
invoke the INTERNAL VREF mode. The connections between the C1 80-bit interface DDR4
component memories and XCVU9P banks 71, 72, and 73 are listed in Table 3-2.

RLD3 Component Memory
[Figure 2-1, callout 5]
The 288 MB RLD3 72-bit wide component memory system is comprised of two 36-bit 1.125
Gb RLDRAM3 devices (Micron MT44K32M36RB-083E) located at U141-U142. This memory
system is connected to the XCVU9P HP banks 46, 47, and 48. The RLD3 0.6V VTT termination
voltage (net RLD3_C3_VTT) is sourced from TI TPS51200DR linear regulator U143. The RLD3
memory interface bank VREF pins are not connected, which, coupled with an XDC
set_property INTERNAL_VREF constraint, invoke the INTERNAL VREF mode. The
connections between the RLD3 component memories and XCVU9P banks 46, 47, and 48 are
listed in Table 3-4.

Linear BPI Flash Memory
[Figure 2-1, callout 6]
The linear BPI flash memory located at U133 provides 128 MB (1 Gbit) of nonvolatile
storage that can be used for configuration or software storage. The data, address, and
control signals are connected to the U1 XCVU9P bank 65. The BPI flash memory device is
packaged in a 64-pin BGA.
•Part number: MT28GU01GAAA1EGC-0SIT (Micron)
•Supply voltage: 1.8V
•Datapath width: 16 bits (with 26 address lines and 7 control signals)
•Data rate: up to 90 MHz
The linear BPI flash memory can synchronously configure the FPGA in master BPI mode at
the 90 MHz data rate supported by the MT28GU01GAAA1EGC flash memory by using a
configuration bitstream generated with BitGen options for synchronous configuration and
for a configuration clock division of one. The fastest configuration method uses the
external 90 MHz oscillator connected to the FPGA bank 65 EMCCLK pin AL20. By default,
UltraScale FPGAs use the parallel NOR flash asynchronous read in the master BPI
configuration mode.
A full XCVU9P 641,272,864-bit uncompressed bitstream requires 60% of the 1 Gbit linear
BPI NOR flash size, so one XCVU9P bitstream is supported.
The BPI flash upper address A25 pin is wired to pull-up header J29 to allow one of two
compressed bitstreams to be manually selected.
See the UltraScale Architecture Configuration User Guide (UG570) [Ref 2] for more
information.
Add these constraints for compression to designs targeted for the VCU118 board.
The connections between the BPI flash memory and the FPGA are listed in Table 3-4.

Digilent USB JTAG Module
[Figure 2-1, callout 8, 9]
JTAG configuration is provided through a Digilent onboard USB-to-JTAG configuration
logic module (U115) where a host computer accesses the VCU118 board JTAG chain
through a type-A (host side) to micro-B (VCU118 board side J106) USB cable.
A 2 mm JTAG header (J3) is also provided in parallel for access by Xilinx download cables,
such as the Platform Cable USB II. JTAG initiated configuration takes priority over the
configuration method selected through the FPGA mode pins M[2:0], wired to SW16
positions [2:4]. The JTAG chain of the VCU118 board is illustrated in Figure 3-3.
For more details about the Digilent USB JTAG Module, see the Digilent website [Ref 21].

FMC Connector JTAG Bypass
When an FMC is attached to the VCU118 board, it is automatically added to the JTAG chain
through electronically controlled single-pole single-throw (SPST) switches U26 (HSPC) and
U132 (HPC1). The SPST switches are in a normally closed state and transition to an open
state when the FMC is attached. Switch U26 adds an attached FMC to the FPGAs JTAG chain
as determined by the FMC_HSPC_H_PRSNT_M2C_B signal. Switch U132 adds an attached
FMC to the FPGAs JTAG chain as determined by the FMC_HPC1_PRSNT_M2C_B signal.
IMPORTANT: The attached FMC must implement a TDI-to-TDO connection through a device or bypass
jumper to ensure that the JTAG chain connects to the FPGA U1.
The JTAG connectivity on the VCU118 board allows a host computer to download bitstreams
to the FPGA using the Xilinx tools. In addition, the JTAG connector allows debug tools such
as the Vivado serial I/O analyzer or a software debugger to access the FPGA. The Xilinx tools
can also program the BPI parallel flash memory.

System Clock
[Figure 2-1, callout 11]
The system clock source is a Silicon Labs SI5335A quad clock generator U122. The system
clock (SYSCLK) is a LVDS 300 MHz clock sourced from the CLK0A output pair of U122.
SYSCLK is wired to SI53340 U157 clock MUX/quad-buffer input CLK0 P/N inputs (pins 6 (P)
and 7 (N)).
The 3.3V SI53340 U157 has four LVDS output clock pairs:
•U157 output Q0 drives clock pair SYSCLK1_300_P/N, connected to XCVU9P FPGA U1
bank 47 global clock (GC) pins G31 and F31 (series capacitor coupled), respectively.
•U157 output Q1 drives clock pair SYSCLK2_300_P/N which is not connected to XCVU9P
FPGA U1, it is wired to the SI53340 U104 CLK1 input.
•U157 output Q2 drives clock pair USER_SI570_CLOCK1_P/N, connected to XCVU9P
FPGA U1 bank 64 global clock (GC) pins AW23 and AW22, respectively.
The 300 MHz system clock circuit (U122 upper right CLK0 branch) is shown in Figure 3-4.

C programmable low-jitter 3.3V LVDS differential oscillator U18 is
connected to the CLK1 P/N inputs (pins 3 (P) and 4 (N)) of clock MUX/quad buffer SI53340

The clock MUX input select pin 2 is wired to 2-pin header J8 and a pull-down resistor. The
default J8 setting is jumper OFF, which allows the pull-down resistor to select U157 input
CLK0, the SI5335A quad clock generator U122 CLK0 300 MHz fixed frequency output. SI570
U18 is selected as the U157 source clock when a jumper block is installed on J8, pulling the
U157 select signal High and selecting the U157 CLK1 input. SI570 U18 can be programmed
over the IIC_MAIN bus, either from the FPGA U1 fabric or the Zynq-7000 AP SoC system
controller U111. See the I2C Bus, Topology, and Switches section for more details.

On power-up, the U18 SI570 user clock defaults to an output frequency of 156.250 MHz.
The system controller and user applications can change the output frequency within the
range of 10 MHz to 810 MHz. Power cycling the VCU118 evaluation board resets the user
clock to the default frequency of 156.250 MHz.
Three additional clocks are sourced from the SI5335A U122 quad clock generator:
•Output CLK1: 125 MHz LVDS signal pair CLK_125MHZ_P and CLK_125MHZ_N,

frequency output, wired to U104 input CLK1, is selected as the U104 source clock when a
jumper block is installed on J9, pulling the U104 select signal High and selecting the U104
CLK1 input.
On power-up, the U32 SI570 user clock defaults to an output frequency of 156.250 MHz.
The system controller and user applications can change the output frequency within the
range of 10 MHz to 810 MHz through an I
2
C interface. Power cycling the VCU118 evaluation
board resets the user clock to the default frequency of 156.250 MHz.
The I²C programmable SI570 U32/SI53340 U104 clock buffer circuit is shown in Figure 3-5.

User SMA Clock
[Figure 2-1, callout 15]
The VCU118 board provides a pair of SMAs for differential user clock input into FPGA U1 HP
bank 45. The P-side SMA J34 signal USER_SMA_CLOCK_P is connected to FPGA U1 HP bank
45 GC pin R32, with the N-side SMA J35 signal USER_SMA_CLOCK_N connected to U1 HP
bank 45 GC pin P32. Bank 45 VADJ_1V8_FPGA VCCO is nominally 1.8V. The
USER_SMA_CLOCK input voltage swing should not exceed the voltage setting on the
VADJ_1V8_FPGA rail. Any signal connected to the USER_SMA_CLOCK connector inputs must
be equal to or less than the VCCO for bank 45. Valid values for the VADJ rail VADJ_1V8_FPGA
are 1.5V and 1.8V. This value must be confirmed prior to applying signals to the
USER_SMA_CLOCK connectors.

Jitter Attenuated Clock
[Figure 2-1, callout 16]
The VCU118 board includes a Silicon Labs Si5328B jitter attenuator U57 on the back side of
the board. The FPGA U1 QSFP1/QSFP2 control interface bank 64 can output QSFP RX
differential clocks (QSFP1_RECCLK_P, pin AM23 and QSFP1_RECCLK_N, pin AM22, and
QSFP2_RECCLK_P, pin AP23 and QSFP2_RECCLK_N, pin AP22) for jitter attenuation. The jitter
attenuated clock (SI5328_CLOCK1_C_P (U57 output pin 28), SI5328_CLOCK1_C_N (U57
output pin 29)) is routed as a reference clock to FPGA U1 GTY Quad 231 inputs
MGTREFCLK1P (U1 pin U9) and MGTREFCLK1N (U1 pin U8). The jitter attenuated clock
(SI5328_CLOCK2_C_P (U57 output pin 35), SI5328_CLOCK2_C_N (U57 output pin 34)) is
routed as a reference clock to FPGA U1 GTY Quad 232 inputs MGTREFCLK1P (U1 pin N9) and
MGTREFCLK1N (U1 pin N8).
The primary purpose of this clock is to support synchronous protocols, such as common
packet radio interface (CPRI™) or open base station architecture initiative (OBSAI). These
synchronous protocols perform clock recovery from user-supplied QSFP/QSFP+ modules,
and use the jitter attenuated recovered clock to drive the reference clock inputs of a GTY
transceiver.
The system controller configures SI5328B U57 in free-run mode or automatically switches
over to one of two recovered clock inputs for synchronous operation. Enabling the jitter
attenuation feature requires additional user programming from FPGA IP through the I²C
bus. The jitter attenuated clock circuit is shown in Figure 3-9.
IMPORTANT: The Silicon Labs Si5328 U57 pin 1 reset net SI5328_RST_B must be driven High to enable
the device. U57 pin 1 net SI5328_RST_B is level-shifted to 1.8V by U3 and is connected to FPGA U1 bank
64 pin BC21.
IMPORTANT: The Silicon Labs Si5328 U57 component implements a 3-to-1 multiplexer. One of three
input clocks (XA/B, CKIN1, or CKIN2) is selected via I²C programming.
An active-Low input at U57 pin 1 RST_B performs an external hardware reset of this device.
This resets all internal logic to a known state and forces the device registers to their default
value. The clock outputs are disabled during reset. The part must be programmed after a
reset or a power-on to get a clock output. The reset pin 1 has a weak internal pull-up.
For more details on the Silicon Labs SI5335A, SI570, SI53340, and SI5328B devices, see the
Silicon Labs website [Ref 22].

PCI Express Endpoint Connectivity
[Figure 2-1, callout 17]
The 16-lane PCI Express edge connector U2 performs data transfers at the rate of 2.5 GT/s
for Gen1 applications, 5.0 GT/s for Gen2 applications, and 8.0 GT/s for Gen3 applications.
The PCIe transmit and receive signal data paths have a characteristic impedance of
85Ω ±10%. The PCIe clock is routed as a 100Ω differential pair.
The XCVU9P-L2FLGA2104 (-2 speed grade) is deployed on the VCU118 to support up to
Gen3 x8.
The PCIe reference clock input is from the U2 edge connector. It is AC coupled to FPGA U1
through the MGTREFCLK0 pins of Quad 225. PCIE_CLK_Q0_P is connected to U1 pin AL9,
and the _N net is connected to pin AL8. The PCI Express clock connection is shown in
Figure 3-10.

Dual USB-to-UART Bridge
[Figure 2-1, callout 21]
The VCU118 evaluation board contains a Silicon Labs CP2105GM dual USB-to-UART bridge
device (U34) that allows a connection to a host computer with a USB port. The USB cable is
supplied in the VCU118 evaluation kit (standard type-A end to host computer, type micro-B
end to VCU118 evaluation board connector J4). The CP2105GM is powered by the USB 5V
provided by the host PC when the USB cable is plugged into the USB port on the VCU118
evaluation board.
The dual UART interface connections are split between two components:
•UART1 SCI 4-wire interface is connected to the XCVU9P U1 FPGA
•UART2 ECI 2-wire interface is connected to the system controller
Silicon Labs provides royalty-free virtual COM port (VCP) drivers for the host computer.
These drivers permit the CP2105GM dual USB-to-UART Bridge to appear as a pair of COM
ports 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 VCU118 evaluation board. The COM port driver list
will show an enhanced com port and a standard com port. The standard com port is
connected to the FPGA and UART IP must be implemented in the FPGA for communications
over this channel. The enhanced com port is connected to the system controller.

IMPORTANT: The TCA9548 U28 and U80 RESET_B pin 3 is connected to FPGA U1 Bank 64 pin AL25.
FPGA pin AL25 LVCMOS18 net IIC_MUX_RESET_B must be driven High to enable I²C bus transactions
with the devices connected to U28 and U80.
User applications that communicate with devices on one of the downstream I2C buses must
first set up a path to the desired target bus through the U28 or U80 bus switch at I
address 0x74 (0b1110100) or 0x75 (0b111101), respectively. Table 3-27 lists the address

Switches
[Figure 2-1, callouts 27, 30]
The VCU118 evaluation board includes a power on/off slide switch and a configuration
pushbutton switch:
•Power on/off slide switch SW1 (callout 30)
•FPGA Program_B SW4, active-Low (callout 27)
Power On/Off Slide Switch SW1
[Figure 2-1, callout 30]
The VCU118 board power switch is SW1. Sliding the switch actuator from the off to on
position applies 12VDC power from the 6-pin mini-fit power input connector J15. Green
LED DS20 illuminates when power is available at the VCU118 power connector J15, and
DS26 illuminates when the VCU118 board power switch is on. See VCU118 Board Power
System for details on the onboard power system.
CAUTION! Do NOT plug a PC ATX power supply 6-pin connector into J15 on the VCU118 evaluation
board. The ATX 6-pin connector has a different pinout than J15. Connecting an ATX 6-pin connector
into J15 damages the VCU118 evaluation board and voids the board warranty.

The VCU118 evaluation board supports the VITA 57.1 FPGA mezzanine card (FMC)
specification by providing a subset implementation of the high pin count connector at J2
(HPC1). HPC connectors use a 10 x 40 form factor, populated with 400 pins. The connector
is keyed so that a mezzanine card, when installed on the VCU118 evaluation board, faces
away from the board.
In addition, the VCU118 evaluation board supports the VITA 57.4 FPGA mezzanine card plus
(FMC+ or FMCP) specification by providing a subset implementation of the high pin count
