Lattice ECP33 PCI Express Evaluation Board
with Philips, TI, or Genesys Logic External PHY

            Genesys Logic GL9714              External PHY Module

Philips Semiconductor PX1011A External PHY Module

Powered by Lattice ECP33 and supported by PCI Express IP core available through HiTech Global, the ECP33-PCIE board  is an ideal platform for development and evaluation of PCI Express based designs. The ECP33-PCIE board is supported by series of modules populated with Genesys Logic, Philips, or TI External PHY chips.

Features:

  • Populated by Lattice ECP33 (-5 speed grade)
  • DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM. The board is shipped with a 256 MB DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM. The board can support up a 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM SO-DIMM (a custom version of the PCI Express Reference Design is needed to support any size other than 256 MB)
  • x1 PCI Express Connector
  • Expansion Card Connector. The Expansion Card Connector is high-speed, impedance-controlled connector, Samtec part number MIS- 095-01-L-D-K. The Expansion Card Connector can be used to attach an application-specific expansion card. An optional expansion card enables the PCI Express Development Board to implement a complete three-port application (PCI Express Port, SDRAM port, custom port). The optional ASIC Emulation Expansion Card contains two large FPGAs enabling it to be used to emulate an ASIC. The PCI/PCI-X Socket Expansion Card has a standard 64 bit PCI/PCI-X socket enabling a PCI/PCI-X card to be connected to the PCI Express Development Board.
  • -Programming Select Switch - The Programming Select Switch is used to set the JTAG to either program the Serial Flash or to configure the ECP FPGA.
  • PHY Daughter Card Connector. The PHY Daughter Card Connector is high-speed, impedance-controlled connector. It enables Philips, Ti, and Genesys Logic PHY Daughter Cards contained a PCI Express PHY to be connected to the board.
  • Cable Header - The Cable Header can be used to cable to a logic analyzer or other system board. The board comes with a Loopback Cable which plugs into the Cable Header. The Loopback Cable is used to test the Cable Header during the board self-test.
  • External Power Headers
  • JTAG Connector - The JTAG Connectors is used to program the FPGA Configuration Serial Flash or directly configure the ECP. The ispTrace tool also uses the JTAG connector.
  • FPGA Configuration Serial Flash- The FPGA Configuration Serial Flash is located underneath the SDRAM SO-DIMM. An 8 Mbit Serial Flash is used to configure the ECP 33.
