5.2.2 UFL connectors
The UFL connectors on the FMC provide direct un-buffered signals to the attached FPGA. These are intended
for connecting high speed timing signals to the FPGA, or to be used for synchronising between FPGA boards
where multiple FMC-CAMERALINKs are used.

5.2.3 Auxiliary Serial
In addition to serial over Camera Link, a RS232 serial connection can also be connected to an attached FPGA
via a RS232 buffer. The external RS232 signals should be within the ranges specified in the tables in
RX input
and
TX output
