The self-test accesses the peripherals of the peripheral subsystem that is implemented in the
FPGA on the ARC SDP Mainboard. It displays information on the bitfile version and the
available peripherals in a debug console on the PC. Additionally, the current CPU core speed
is measured and displayed in the debug console. For a quick start, use a hyperterminal, such
as PuTTY, as a debug console
”).
Next, the self-test enters an infinite loop, which creates walking patterns on the
CPU-LEDs
on
the ARC SDP Mainboard and LED
121x
on the AXC003 CPU Card as follows:
The
CPU-LEDs
(
LED2501, LED2502, LED2503, LED2504, LED2505, LED2506,
LED2507 and LED2508
) on the ARC SDP Mainboard display a walking pattern with one of
the LEDs switched ON.
The eight
LED121x LEDs
on the AXC003 CPU Card show a walking pattern with one of the
LEDs switched OFF.
The figures on page 21 show the locations of the LEDs.
