    Upon power-up, the preprogrammed demonstration design automatically loads and drives the LED array in a 1-hertz pattern. The program shows a clock divider driven either by the MachXO3 internal oscillator or the external FTDI clock chip. The divider modules (heartbeat.v and kitcar.v) are clocked at the default frequency of 12 MHz which divides the clock to cycle the LED display approximately once per second.

    This section describes the features of the MachXO3 Starter Kit in detail. Overview The Starter Kit is a complete development platform for the MachXO3 FPGA. The board includes a prototyping area, a USB program/power port, an LED array, switches, and header landings with electrical connections to most of the FPGA’s programmable I/O, power, and configuration pins.
  • Page 9 This section describes the principle sub systems for the Starter Kit in alphabetical order. Clock Sources Clock sources for the LED demonstration designs originate from the MachXO3 on-chip oscillator or the 12 MHz crystal X1. You may use an expansion header landing to drive a FPGA input with an external clock source.
