Software Setup and Configuration
1.3.1.
Software Installation
The RC21012A/RC31012A programmer board is compatible with the RICBox VersaClock 7 plugin. The plugin
can be used to interface with the device via register read/writes. For instructions regarding installation of RICBox
or any of the device plug-ins, see the RICBox product page.
Note: Be sure to update to the latest version of the RICBox GUI and VersaClock 7 plug-in before interfacing with
the RC21012A/RC31012A programmer board.

Programming OTP Memory
Programming OTP memory can be done easily inside the RICBox GUI. The RC21012A/RC31012A can program
up to 27 configurations into OTP memory. To ensure that OTP memory is programmed correctly, complete the
following procedure:
1. Place a device in the socket and connect the programmer board to a PC, with RICBox and the VersaClock 7
plug-in installed, via the USB connector.
2. Open RICBox and navigate to an existing RC21008A or RC31008A settings file, or create a new
configuration.
Ensure that the correct XIN and CLKIN settings are set based on J4, and the signals are driven in the
programmer board depending on the configuration loaded.
3. Once a configuration is open, go to the block diagram view.
4. Click on the OTP/EEPROM button in the lower left corner to view the OTP/EEPROM pop-up.
