11 Jumper settings/pinouts

The SIS3820 has 3 jumper fields and a JTAG connector.

Jumper field Function
J1

VME addressing mode

J90 Reset

behavior

JP570 JTAG

source

CON500 JTAG

connector

The first pin of the jumper fields is marked by a square pin on the solder side and an extra
frame on the silk screen of the component side.

11.1 J1

J1 is in charge of the VME addressing mode and SDRAM size selection. At this point in time
the user can select between rotary switch selected A32 addressing and geographical A32
addressing.. A closed position selects the corresponding function.

Function

EN_A32
reserved
EN_GEO

SDRAM

The default setting for a 64 MB unit is EN_A32 closed and all other positions opened.

Following memory architectures are supported

Memory

size rows columns banks

64 MB

512 MB

Note:

An example to determine the architecture from the SPD can be found in the Visual C++

example sis3820_sdram_eeprom.c

11.2 J90

J90 controls the reset behavior of the SIS3820.

Function

reserved
connect VME reset to SIS3820 reset
reserved

J90

enable watchdog

The default setting is VME reset and enable watchdog closed and all other positions opened.

Note:

open the enable watchdog for firmware upgrades
