4.2. Temperature Monitor
FPGA die temperature sensor
All Coaxlink cards embed a temperature sensor on the FPGA die.
When the
TemperatureSensorSelector
feature of the Interface Module is set to
Grabber
, the
Temperature
feature of the Interface Module reports the FPGA die temperature expressed in °C.
The user application is invited to check regularly the FPGA die temperature to ensure that the
board operates within the specified operating limits.

FPGA die temperature warning
Applies to
1
When the measured FPGA die temperature reaches
87°C
, these Coaxlink cards post a
"FPGA
temperature is too high"
Memento message.
The
"FPGA temperature is too high"
message is sent repeatedly every second until the measured
temperature decreases below 83°C or increases above 103°C.
TIP
Operation is still possible but is not recommended!
WARNING
When such event occurs, the user is invited to check and, possibly, improve
the card cooling in the host PC!
