Question regarding FMC connector on UltraZed EV Carrier Card

engin_e
engin_e over 5 years ago

Hi to all,

 

I am currently working on a project, using UltraZed-EV SOM on UltraZed-EV Carrier Card as evaluation platform. I need to connect an FMC module with HDMI in/out capabilities through the HPC FMC port provided on the  carrier card. The module I have chosen is AES-FMC-HDMI-CAM-G from AVNET.

 

When I check the schematics of both the FMC module and UltraZed-EV Carrier Card, I noticed a discrepancy about the signals CLK_M2C_P and CLK_M2C_N.

 

On the FMC module, these signals are connected to important signals such as FMC_HDMII_LLC and HDMIO_CLK, which are essential to module's function. They are connected to pins G2 and G3, which  conforms to the FMC standard:

 

FMC Module schematic:

https://fmchub.github.io/appendix/VITA57_FMC_HPC_LPC_SIGNALS_AND_PINOUT.html

 

But in the schematic of UltraZed-EV Carrier Card, even though CLK_M2C_P and CLK_M2C_N shown as connected to HP_DP_34_GC_P and HP_DP_34_GC_N, these signals are placed on the K4 and K5 pins on the Bank K of the Carrier Card, (that doesn't conform to the FMC standard) and pins G2 and G3 seems to be unconnected.

So in the schematics, either signal names are wrong and pin names and banks are true with respect to actual board design, (which is this case i won't be able to use the FMC module), or signal names are correct but bank and pin names are wrong (then FMC module will work just fine). Which is true?

 

Thank you in advance

    Hi there,

     

    We have posted an errata related to this and I wanted to point people to the discussion around that.

    UltraZed-EV Carrier Card FMC Symbol Issue

    For anyone that runs into this same issue in the future, please check the errata or that post for instructions on how to get support for this issue.
