ProASIC3/E Starter Kit Quickstart Card Overview The ProASIC3 Starter Kit provides complete evaluation solutions that enable quick evaluation and design prototyping of Microsemi ProASIC3 FPGAs. The board supports on-board voltage regulation, advanced FlashROM capabilities, and four high-speed LVDS channels with a ProASIC3/E device or two LVDS channels with a ProASIC3 device. Hardware Features · Wall mount power supply connector, with switch and LED indicator · Switches to select from among 1.5 V, 1.8 V, 2.5 V, and 3.3 V--I/O voltages on banks 4 and 5 · Two CAT5E RJ45 connectors for high-speed LVDS communications · Eight I/O banks for ProASIC3/E (six for ProASIC3) · Two programming headers: Support in-system programming (ISP) of single and JTAG-chained boards using FlashPro4 · 40 MHz oscillator and two independent manual clock options for global reset and pulse Running the Test Design To test the board, you can download and program the demo design. See the Documentation Resources section for more information. The following table lists the actions and results for running the demo. Action Press SW1 Press SW2 Press SW3 Press SW4 Press SW5 Press SW6 Change Hex Switch Setting (U13 and U14) Results Asynchronous clear for the whole design. Up-down control for the 8-bit counter. Press and hold SW2 for down count when Count mode is selected using SW6. Synchronous load for the 8-bit counter. Press SW3 for loading from the Hex switches. Switching between manual clock (SW5) and 40 MHz oscillator clock. Manual clock (very useful for simulation). Select for DATA_BLOCK. It allows switching LED output between the counter and flashing data. Changes the loaded data for the 8-bit counter. 2 Downloaded from Arrow.com.
