UG886 (v1.3) November 6, 2013

Quick Start 

Three connections are required for the FPGA base board: power, the USB-UART 
connection to the PC, and the JTAG Standard-A plug to Micro-B plug USB 
programming cable. 

Figure 2-3

 shows how to connect these on the KC705 base board.

Caution!

Do not turn on the power switch until 

step 6, page 16

.
