12V Input Power
The KCU1250 board receives 12V main power through J28 (callout 3,
12V AC adapter included with the KCU1250 board characterization kit. J28 is a 6-pin (2 x 3),
right angle, mini-fit connector.
CAUTION!
When supplying 12V through J28, use only the power supply provided for use with this
board (Xilinx part number 3800033).
CAUTION!
Do NOT use a 6-pin, PC ATX power supply connector with J28. The pinout of the 6-pin, PC
ATX connector is not compatible with J28 and the board will be damaged if an attempt is made to
power it from a PC ATX power supply connector.
12V power can also be provided through:
• Connector J73 (callout 31,
), which accepts an ATX hard drive 4-pin power
plug
• Connector J27 (callout 18,
), which can be connected to a bench-top power
supply
CAUTION!
Because connector J73 provides no reverse polarity protection, use a power supply with a
current limit set at 6A maximum.
