Functionality test
Test 00
Firmware loading
FMC presence
Verification of speed version
o
User is asked to visually verify mounting of resistors R47, R48, R52 and R53 that are used
to indicate the speed version
o
Mounting is compared with speed identification detected by FPGA on the SPEC board
o
User is asked to verify if detected speed version matches the expected one
Possible errors:
More than one SPEC was found
o
Make sure that only one SPEC device is mounted in the test PC.
No SPEC device was found
SPEC enumeration failed
o
Make sure that SPEC device was mounted properly.
o
Make sure that all software was successfully build.
o
Make sure that all drivers were loaded successfully.
Firmware loader failure
No access to masterfip core
Wrong bitstream type loaded
o
Make sure that installation procedure was done according to specification
FMC slot NOT populated
o
Make sure that FMC board is mounted correctly
o
Check FMC soldering
Resistors mount
o
According to the operator’s visual verification some resistors are not mount but are
detected by SPEC FPGA
o
Might be caused by human error or shorting of traces leading to speed indicating
resistors
Test 01
Test01 verifies soldering of the FMC masterFIP front panel LED’s. The user is asked to visually verify if all
LED’s are blinking one after the other.
Possible errors:
Some LED’s may be constantly on or off.
o
Make sure that LED’s are mounted correctly.
o
Make sure the FMC connector is well soldered.
