 KS8695PX Demo Board Description

Integrated Multi-Port PCI Gateway Solution

 
The default base address for the KS8695PX system configuration registers is 0x03ff0000.  
After power up, the user is free to re-map the memory for his/her specific application.  
Here is an example of the memory space remapped for operation:

4.1 KS8695PX 

 

4.1.1 Board 

Reset 

 
The KS8695PX reference board provides both a power on reset and a push button reset, 
as well as circuitry to reset the board using the Multi-ICE.  At power on, the board is 
automatically reset.  The user can also press S1, the reset button on the board for a 
manual reset.  After any reset, expect the LEDs to flash indicating the power on self test.    
 

4.1.2 System 

Clock 

 
The system clock is generated using a 25 MHz crystal (Y1).  The crystal is connected to 
the XCLK1 and XCLK2 inputs on the KS8695PX.  The clock is specified as 3.3V 
tolerant, +/- 100 ppm. 
 

4.1.3 Jumpers 

 
There are a number of jumpers and test points on the board to facilitate configuration and 
testing of the KS8695PX.  Below is a table that lists the jumpers and test points, their 
purpose, and the recommended configuration on the board.
