Feature Descriptions
FPGA Cooling Fan Operation
The FPGA cooling fan control circuit has its PWM signal wired to a dual-use FPGA
bank 15 pin BA37. After configuration, this pin is expected to be toggled by user-provided
fan speed control IP to control fan speed. The fan tachometer feedback signal is wired to
FPGA bank 15 pin BB37.
FPGA U1 pin BA37 is alternately an unused BPI flash memory address pin (A28). During
FPGA configuration in BPI mode, the BPI flash memory address lines are driven. The BA37
pin is held low during BPI configuration and thus the fan PWM signal is not active and the
cooling fan is off during the FPGA BPI configuration process.
After configuration is complete, the dual-use FPGA pin BA37 is available for use by
user-provided fan speed control IP. If no IP is implemented, this pin should be driven High
or placed into high impedance mode so pull-up resistor R198 can pull SM_FAN_PWM
high to turn the fan on.
More information about the power system components used by the VC709 board is
available from the
Texas Instrument digital power
website.
Documentation describing PMBus programming for the UCD9248 digital power controller
is available at the
Texas Instruments fusion tools
documentation webpage.
Note:
It has been noted that power modules on the VC709 evaluation board that operate at
moderate to high current levels (due to a customer design) might generate substantial heat that can
result in unexpected power module shutdowns from over-temperature conditions. This then turns off
the FPGA on the development board. Refer to the
Virtex-7 VC709 Evaluation Kit Master
concerning the solution.
XADC Analog-to-Digital Converter
7 series FPGAs provide an Analog Front End XADC block. The XADC block includes a
dual 12-bit, 1 MSPS Analog-to-Digital Convertor (ADC) and on-chip sensors. See
7 Series FPGAs and Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC XADC Dual 12-Bit 1 MSPS
Analog-to-Digital Converter User Guide
for details on the capabilities of the
analog front end.
