5.1. Power Guidelines

Stratix® 10 GX transceiver signal integrity development kits can be powered by either provided 240 W brick or a standard ATX power supply which provides more than 240 W power.

Use the provided 24-pin to 6-pin adapter cable to hook up ATX power supply's 24-pin ATX output with Stratix® 10 transceiver signal integrity development kit's J103 connector. Do not plug an ATX power supply 6-pin connector into J103 connector directly.

You can supply power for VCC, VCCERAM, VCCRL, VCCRR, VCCT and VCCH rails with external equipment by following the two steps outlined below for such kind of application:
  1. Turn OFF corresponding on-board regulators via SW9 or S14 dipswitch before board power up.
  2. Supply power with banana jacks (J92, J94) or power terminations (J19, J86, J89, J91, J83 ). Manage the power-up and power-down sequence for on-board regulators and external equipments with necessary tools (LTpowerplay).
