Mictor
Connector (J25)
The Mictor connector (J25) can be used to transmit up to 27 high-speed
I/O signals with very low noise via a shielded Mictor cable. J25 can be
used as a debug port for the Nios II processor or as a general-purpose I/O
connector to the FPGA. Twenty five of the Mictor connector signals are
used as data, and two signals are used as clock input and clock output.
Most pins on J25 connect to I/O pins on the FPGA (U62). For systems that
do not use the Mictor connector for debugging the Nios II processor, any
on-chip signals can be routed to I/O pins and probed at J25. External
scopes and logic analyzers can connect to J25 and analyze a large number
of signals simultaneously.
