Guidelines to insert the Zynq-7000 SoC SODIMM SOM into Carrier Board
•
Make sure that power is not provided to the SODIMM carrier board.
•
Insert the SOM module into the socket at a slight angle (approximately 30 degrees) as shown in the below
illustration (A). Note that the socket and module are both keyed, which means the module can be installed
one way only.
•
To seat the module into the socket, apply firm, even pressure to each end of the module until you feel it slip
down into the SODIMM socket connector.
•
With the module properly seated in the socket, rotate the module downward, as indicated in the illustration
(B). Continue pressing the SOM module downward until the clips at each end of the socket lock into position.
•
Once the SOM have been installed, Carrier board can be Powered ON with 5V power supply.
