12 LVDS Link
The TAMC900 provides a differential interface from the FPGA to the SiCA connector. 10 differential pairs out
of one FPGA I/O bank are routed to the SiCA connector. For the Virtex-5 and SiCA connector pin
assignment, see table below.
The use of these lines is free to the customer. The FPGA programming provided by TEWS does not use
these lines. Care must be taken to avoid damaging the FPGA.

Table 12-1: LVDS Link Pin Assignment
The maximum input voltage of the Virtex-5 I/Os is 2.5 Volt.
The TAMC900 will be damaged if higher voltage levels are used.
