DIP Switches (SW1) and Boot-Mode Selection
SW1 # SW1.1 SW1.2
Function BOOT1 DEBUGEN
RZ/V2L boot-mode is determined by the state of BOOT[2:0] at end of Reset:
· BOOT2 (Debug header J19 pin 1) · BOOT1 (DIP switch SW1.1) · BOOT0 (SD card inserted/or not)
RZBoard supports 4 different boot sources (default eMMC boot mode is highlighted):
BOOT2 0 0 0 1
BOOT1 0 0 1 0
BOOT0 0 1 1 1
BOOT MODE Boot from 3V3 SD card Boot from 1V8 eMMC (default) Boot from 1V8 QSPI flash Boot from SCIF serial download
To use "SCIF serial download" boot mode: - Remove SD card from SD card cage (this sets BOOT0=1) - Strap a fly-lead from pin1 of this J19 debug header to
J1-pin2 on 40pin header (ie. To 5V pin, this sets BOOT2=1)
Page 15
o BOOT2 is set by use of a flywire from J19-pin1 of Debug UART 4pin header.
BOOT2 0 1
Strapping to change boot mode Default. No flywire strapping required Strap J19-pin1 to 5V (J1-pin2 on HAT 40pin header)
Figure 3 J1 Header pin-numbering
o BOOT1 is set by DIP switch SW1.1
BOOT1 0 1
Strapping to change boot mode Controlled by DIP switch: SW1.1 = ON Controlled by DIP switch: SW1.1 = OFF
o BOOT0 is driven by the SD card-detect signal (from uSD card cage)
BOOT1 0 1
Strapping to change boot mode SD card is inserted SD card not inserted

Power Consumption Measurements
An inexpensive current-measurement USB dongle is recommended during development, in-line with the USB power connection to monitor 5V input current draw. The USB dongle meter shown here accommodate type-C and type-A cable connections and is available online for around $20 https://www.amazon.com/Tester-Eversame-Voltmeter-Ammeter-Braided/dp/B07MGQZHGM
Note: An invalid current measurement will be seen if RZBoard V2L is powered from a USB port of same PC as used by the debugger probe! To achieve a useful current measurement, power RZBoard from a separate power-adapter, or disconnect the debugger probe.

9 Cautionary Notes
ESD - Handling precautions for ESD-vulnerable electronic equipment are strongly recommended. It is advised to touch the metal housing of Ethernet or USB connectors, prior to touching any other part of the PCB.
Connectors - Use care when inserting/unplugging cables, especially with USB-C and audio jack connectors. Finger-support is advised to brace surface mount connectors against excessive lateral force.
MIPI Connectors - The locking mechanism of MIPI-DSI and MIPI-CSI ribbon cable connectors are relatively fragile and should be handled with care. Make sure of alignment and use minimal force when locking.
OTP eFuses For security reasons, the on-chip OTP fuses in the RZ/V2L are one-time programmable. During application development, there should never be a need to program these fuses. Two boot modes are supported via selection jumper (J19). Programming of OTP eFuses will only be necessary when deploying this board in an end-product. It is the user's responsibility to be absolutely certain of their requirements before OTP programming and to not program the fuses by accident.
Note that Avnet accepts no liability and will not replace boards that have been: · Damaged by ESD or mishandling. · Compromised through OTP eFuse programming
10 Safety Warnings
1) It is recommended that this product only be powered via the onboard USB type-C connector, from one of the following +5V power sources: a) Connected to the development computer (depends on use-case) b) Connected to a 5V power-bank battery of suitable rating c) Connected to an external +5V, 1A DC power adaptor (a higher rating may be needed if an expansion Pi_HAT or custom board is fitted). The external power supply shall comply with relevant regulations and standards applicable in the country of intended use.
2) Only compatible plug-in modules shall be connected to RzBoard V2L. Connection of incompatible devices may affect compliance or result in damage to the unit and void the warranty.
3) This product must be operated in a well-ventilated environment. If an enclosure is used, this must provide adequate ventilation.
4) Do not insert or remove any expansion board or cable, without first unplugging the relevant +5V DC power source
