XA Module Board Hardware Manual 6/19 2.1.1 Default Jumper Settings Power up : Jumpers J8 and J12 should be connected to “xCORE DEF ON” to have the xCORE power default to on. Boot mode: Jumpers J14 and J16 should be connected to “MSEL” for initial xCORE debugging. - Page 7 XA Module Board Hardware Manual 7/19 Figure 3: Debug LEDs Status Description Green The xTAG is powered on Green Target is running Target is in debug mode and stopped Green Target stop reason is expected e.g. breakpoint,print message Target stop reason is unexpected e.g.exception...

Page 16: Add On Board Design
3 Add On Board Design The module board can be plug down into a application specific larger motherboard, or have smaller daughter boards plugged into it from above. Each set of I/O headers includes power, ground and reset for maximum flexibility. Flexible power supply options allow this board to be powered from a microUSB supply, supplying the add on board, or from the add on board, via the headers. -

XMOS hardware reference designs must ensure are followed. The presence of a third party device in an XMOS hardware reference design does not make any statement about its general availability. You must make your own arrangements to ensure that all components can be sourced in the required volumes. -
Page 18: I/O
XA Module Board Hardware Manual 18/19 4.3 I/O Attention should be paid to the I/O planning for both the xCORE and ARM cores. The peripherals provided by the ARM core can be multiplexed to a variety of different pin groups, care should be taken to ensure there is no overlap. the xCORE I/O should be mapped, with care taken to ensure that port types are used appropriately, and that bi-directional usage for wide ports is avoided. -
