FADC-250 Configuration Scheme JTAG Links Loading Configurarion During Code Development 1)Connect (Altera or Xilinx) JTAG cable 2)Set Dip Switch to select JTAG Chain 3)Run Altera Quartus or Xilinx Impact program to config Devices. Remote Config Loading Configurarion After Installation 1)Control FPGA receives config. data via VME-64 bus and temporary stores to SRAM. Config. data for one or more FPGA can be received at once. 2)Control FPGA programs config. data into EPROM. 3)Control FPGA read back config data from EPROM to SRAM. 4)VME host (ROC) read and compare data. If OK, issue config command. 5)Control FPGA issues config command to EPROM to load new config. data to FPGA..

Loading Configurarion After Installation 1)LX110 config. data via VXS IsquareC and temporary stores to RAM inside FPGA. Config. Data has to be segmented due to limited RAM. 2)LX110 programs config. data into EPROM. 3)LX110 read back config data from EPROM to SRAM. 4)VME host (ROC) read and compare data. If OK, send next segment. 5)VME host (ROC) issues config command when all segments are stored in ROM. 6)LX110 issues config command to EPROM to load new config data to FPGA.. FPGA Boot
