JTAG Programming Header: The VPX4821A carrier includes a programming connector that mates with a Xilinx programmer for programming Acromag FPGA products. Acromag XMC FPGA boards can be configured to route the JTAG programming signals through the XMC P15/P25 connectors. Figure 1: Block Diagram...
For repairs to a product damaged in shipment, refer to the Acromag Service Policy to obtain return instructions. It is suggested that salvageable shipping cartons and packing material be saved for future use in the event the product must be shipped.
CARRIER CARD SERIES VPX4821A XMC/PMC CARRIER Figure 2: Jumper Diagram JUMPERS There are six jumper blocks located on the board. The jumper blocks are labeled J1, J2, J3, J4, J5, and J6. Within each jumper block there are multiple jumper settings. A jumper can be used to shout post horizontally and vertically.

Fatal Error (non-recoverable) DS17 Green PCI INTA BACKPLANE KEY The VPX4821A is not keyed and will plug into any VPX backplane. Prior to powerup, verify that VS1 is +12V. Any other voltage on VS1 may damage the board. CONNECTORS Refer to Figure 3 for connector locations. Connectors on the VPX4821A carrier consist of six VPX Backplane connectors, then 2 XMC connectors, and four PMC connectors for each slot.

The profile chart for MOD6-PER-4F-12.3.1-2 is as follows.
SERVICE AND REPAIR ASSISTANCE Surface-Mounted Technology (SMT) boards are generally difficult to repair. It is highly recommended that a non-functioning board be returned to Acromag for repair. The board can be damaged unless special SMT repair and service tools are used. Further, Acromag has automated test equipment that thoroughly checks the performance of each board.
+3.3V supplies for the XMC/PMC modules are generated by on-board DC/DC converters from the +12V backplane supply. Currents specified are for the carrier board only for Model VPX4821A, add the XMC module currents for the total current required from each supply. The major power components are listed below to assist with power calculations Table 5-1 VPX4821A Internal Power usage typical.
Furthermore, never exceed using more then 1A per power pin on the PMC/XMC modules. Resistance losses can mount when more then 1A per power pin is used and Acromag can no longer guarantee that the voltage falls within specification. Table 5-2 Total Power Available for PMC/XMC modules...
