  • Page 7: Introduction

    This guide describes how to set up and run the PCIe Colorbar Demo using devices built on the Lattice Nexus™ platform, specifically CrossLink™-NX and Certus™-NX. For CrossLink-NX, the demo is targeted to the CrossLink-NX PCIe Bridge Board, which features the CrossLink-NX FPGA in the 400-ball caBGA package (LIFCL-40-8BG400C). For Certus-NX, the demo is targeted towards the Certus-NX Versa Evaluation Board, which features the Certus-NX FPGA in the 256-ball caBGA package (LFD2NX-40-8BG256C).

  • Page 9: Setting Up The Demo

    Make sure the board is plugged into a PCIe slot or connected to the 12 V input supply. For CrossLink-NX, if the board is plugged into the PCIe slot, external power is provided by the system, and SW2 should be in the up position to receive power from the PCIe slot. If external 12 V power is provided, then SW2 should be in the down position to receive power from the external 12 V connection.
