Part 7: LED There is a red power indicator (PWR) and a configuration LED (DONE) on the ACU4EV core board. When the core board is powered on, the power indicator will light up; after the FPGA configuration program, the configuration LED light will light up.
Figure 7-1: LED Schematic in the Core Board Part 8: Power Supply The power supply voltage of the ACU4EV core board is DC12V, which is supplied by connecting the carrier board. The core board uses a PMIC chip TPS6508641 to generate all the power required by the XCZU4EV chip. For the TPS6508641 power supply design, please refer to the power supply chip manual.
