Blue done LED  never

eddydw
eddydw over 9 years ago

Hi

I copied the original SD card image to an SD card and inserted it in the SD slot on the ZED board.

The jumpers are set to boot from SD card as follows :

MODE3 (JP10) shunted to 3.3V
MODE2 (JP9) shunted to 3.3V
All other MODE pins shunted to GND.

The uart terminal does not show a connection and the Blue led (DONE pin) never light up

Does this mean that the board is broken(Zynq does not boot)?

What cnn be the root cause? Am I missing something

Thx

    Hi Eddy,

    I have run into this exact problem before with improperly formatted SD cards.

    Make sure to perform a full format (usually a quick format works but sometimes it does not) of the SD card using FAT or FAT32 file systems.

    If that does not work either, you can more reliably determine if there is something wrong with the Zynq-7000 All Programmable SoC device by trying to connect to it from Vivado Hardware Manager using the built in USB-JTAG interface.

    Regards,

    -Kevin
