4. Board Test System
The Agilex 7 FPGA I-Series Transceiver (6 × F-Tile) Development Kit includes design
examples and the board test system (BTS) GUI to test the functionality of this board.
The BTS provides an easy-to-use interface to alter functional settings and observe
results. You can use the BTS to test board components, modify functional parameters,
observe performance, and measure power usage.
While using the BTS, you reconfigure the FPGA several times with test designs specific
to the functionality that you are testing. The BTS is also useful as a reference for
designing systems. The BTS communicates over the JTAG bus to a test design running
in the Agilex 7 FPGA I-Series Transceiver (6 × F-Tile) device.
The BTS checks for hardware faults before you can use the board. If one or more BTS
test items fail, it implies either a wrong hardware setting or hardware fault on specific
interface.
The following figure shows the GUI of a board that is in factory configuration.
