1.1.2. Running the Triple Rate SDI II with External VCXO Reference Design

When the board is set up and the FPGA is configured, you can start running the demonstration tests. Subsequent topics describe the tests that you can run.

Table 3.  DIP SwitchUse the SW2 DIP switches to specify the input and output type for the tests. A logical 0 indicates that the switch is ON; a logical 1 indicates that the switch is OFF.
SW2 Description

  • 0: 75% color bars
  • 1: 100% color bars
7
  • 0: Output color bars
  • 1: Output pathological
6
  • 0: Output color
  • 1: Output no color
5 Unused

Table 4.  User LEDsThe User LEDs indicate the expected results. A logical 1 indicates that the LED illuminates, a logical 0 indicates otherwise.
User LEDs Description
D3 The heartbeat of the transmitter clock out for channel 0.
D4 The heartbeat of the receiver recovered clock out for channel 0.
D5 Frame locked for channel 0.
D6 TRS locked for channel 0.
D7, D8 RX signal standard for channel 0:
  • SD: [D7, D8]=00
  • HD: [D7, D8]=01
  • 3Ga: [D7, D8]=11
  • 3Gb: [D7, D8]=10
D9, D10 Internal pattern generator signal standard for channel 1:
  • SD: [D9, D10]=00
  • HD: [D9, D10]=01
  • 3Ga: [D9, D10]=11
  • 3Gb: [D9, D10]=10
Note: You need to compile and configure the design before you run the tests. For more information about compiling and configuring the design, refer to Compiling the Design and Configuring the FPGA.
