6.7.4. FMC
The Arria 10 GX FPGA development board includes a high pin count (HPC) FPGA
mezzanine card (FMC) connector that functions with a quadrature amplitude
modulation (QAM) digital-to-analog converter (DAC) FMC module or daughtercard.
This pin-out satisfies a QAM DAC that requires 58 LVDS data output pairs, one LVDS
input clock pair, and three low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) control pairs from
the FPGA device. These pins also have the option to be used as single-ended I/O pins.
The VCCIO supply for the FMC A and FMC B banks provide a variable voltage of 1.2V -
1.8V. The default voltage value is 1.8V.
However, for device safety concerns, a jumper is available for you to connect this bank
to the same VCCIO used for the FMC A banks. This allows the VCCIO pins on the FPGA
to be tied to a known power. The VCCIO pins also allows you the option to perform a
manual check for the module’s input voltage before connecting to the FPGA. This is to
ensure that the module does not exceed the power supply maximum voltage rating.
