Thunderbolt 3 Setup
hunderbolt 3 is unique communication path between the Host PC and FLIK. As
shown in Figure 2-1 , the FLIK use thunderbolt3 port to connect the PCIe and
USB Blaster II interface to the FPGA. For the OpenCL and OpenVINO
applications with the Intel FPGA, the PCIe bus is the main interface for communicating
and transferring data with the host PC. The thunderbolt3 port on the FLIK allows the
user to build such connection for the FPGA and the host PC via a thunderbolt3 cable.
In addition, the thunderbolt3 on the FLIK also provides an USB interface to connect to
the USB Blaster II circuit on the board, providing a JTAG interface for the user to
program the FPGA or configuration device through the host PC.
Therefore, a host PC equipmented with thunderbolt 3 port is required to work with the
FLIK. This chapter will show user how to setup thunderbolt 3 connection between the
Host PC and the FLIK for the first time. The windows OS is present in this chapter. For
Linux OS, please refer to the Linux Getting start guide .
