NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC V1.1 ECHNICAL EFERENCE ANUAL 1.2. About This Document This document is intended to give an overview on the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC’s functional capabilities. Preface General information about this document Introduction Abstract on the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC’s main functionality and application field Quick Start...
EFERENCE ANUAL NTRODUCTION The NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC is a FMC carrier board in AMC form factor with integrated hardware elements, which make it the ideal platform for sophisticated wireless, machine vision, and SDR applications. The carrier board can be expanded be several FMC mezzanine modules, which offer the flexibility to address a broad range of applications.
Make sure the part to be installed / removed is hot-swap-capable, if you do not switch off the power. Ensure that the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC is connected to the carrier board or to the µTCA backplane with the connector completely inserted. When operating the board in areas of strong electromagnetic radiation, ensure that the module is bolted to the front panel or rack, and shielded by closed housing.
The NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC supports hot-swapping, which means that the board can be inserted or extracted during normal system operation without affecting other modules. Make sure to follow the procedure exactly to prevent the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC or the system it is plugged into from damage!

NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC V1.1 ECHNICAL EFERENCE ANUAL 4.1.2. Programmable Logic (FPGA) 4.1.2.1. Programming The Programmable Logic of the ZYNQUP-SoC can be accessed via an onboard Xilinx Programming Module (JTAG-SMT3). It allows to program and debug the FPGA using a Micro- USB Cable, while it serves the same functionality as the Xilinx Platform Cable II programmer.
ECHNICAL EFERENCE ANUAL On request, the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC can be equipped with several memory extension cards. Depending on the target application, different memory types can offer advantages; QDR4 and RLDRAM3 memory offers low latency random access, which is useful for applications requiring RAM look up tables (LUTs).

EFERENCE ANUAL 4.3. IPMB-Interface and I C-Devices The NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC implements an IPMB interface consisting of an IPMI-µC (ATXMega128) and a couple of I C devices connected via I²C. The following figure shows the architecture in detail. Figure 3 – IPMB-Interface...
ANUAL 4.4. JTAG and UART The NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC supports JTAG and serial UART via the front panel USB connector or the on-board JTAG programming header. Both interfaces can be used simultaneously and can be configured using on-board DIP switches. Configuration of the JTAG Master is possible via the JTAG MUX Switch; for detailed information on this switch, please refer to chapter 5.3.9 SW3: JTAG MUX.
Front Panel and LEDs The front plate appearance and the labelling vary depending on the number and variant(s) of installed FMCs. The figure below shows the full-size version of the NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC carrier board. Figure 5 – Front Panel – Full Size Stat Table 6 –...

NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC V1.1 ECHNICAL EFERENCE ANUAL FMC O PERATION 6.1. Front panel Depending on the used FMC the front panel metalwork may not fit and needs to be reworked. This is needed in case FMC with 8.5 mm stacking height are used that do not fit into the standard front panel cut out which is made for 100 mm stacking height FMCs.
NAT-AMC-ZYNQUP-FMC V1.1 ECHNICAL EFERENCE ANUAL Figure 18 – Installing FMC Module Part 2 6.4. FMC EEPROM Wizard Per default, the carrier will try to parse the FMC FRU records from the modules EEPROM contents to set the carrier’s power supply and clock direction. In case there is an FMC without records, there are two options: Generate and program the records with the carrier.
