[Figure 1-2, callout 32]
The KC705 board uses power regulators and PMBus compliant digital PWM system
controllers from Texas Instruments to supply core and auxiliary voltages. The Texas
Instruments Fusion Digital Power graphical user interface (GUI) is used to monitor the
current and temperature levels of the board power modules. If any module temperature
approaches 85°C then forced air cooling must be provided to keep the module temperature
within rated limits.
The PCB layout and power system have been designed to meet the recommended criteria
described in 7 Series FPGAs PCB Design and Pin Planning Guide (UG483) [Ref 21].
