Chapter 1: XM105
Quick Start
System Requirements
Hardware
Table 1-1 lists the boards validated to support the XM105. Both low pin count (LPC) and 
high pin count (HPC) FMC interfaces are supported. The SP601 and SP605 boards provide 
a single FMC LPC interface. The ML605 board provides one FMC LPC and one FMC HPC 
interface. The XM105 contains an HPC connector that mates with either LPC or HPC 
connectors.
Software
Example designs that use this hardware are not provided.

Notes: 
While every effort has been made to comply with the FPGA Mezzanine Card Specification, Xilinx cannot 
claim nor assume full compliance with the FMC/VITA-57-1 specification. Consequently, Xilinx cannot 
claim nor support the usage of the XM105 on any other FMC (VITA-57.1) board.
Xilinx FMC cards are generally designed to implement expanded functionality for supported Xilinx 
evaluation boards (SP601, SP605, or ML605) and thus might exceed the FMC card outline dimensions 
discussed in the Single Width FMC Module Mechanical section of the FMC/VITA-57-1 specification. 
Therefore, Xilinx FMC cards might not physically fit in a non-Xilinx evaluation board environment.
