Chapter 1: SP605 Evaluation Board
as shown in Figure 1-7. When the VITA 57.1 FMC LPC expansion connector is populated 
with an expansion module that has a JTAG chain, jumper J19 must be set to connect pins 
2-3 in order to include the FMC expansion module's JTAG chain in the main SP605 JTAG 
chain.
The JTAG chain can be used to program the FPGA and access the FPGA for hardware and 
software debug.
The JTAG connector (USB Mini-B J4) allows a host computer to download bitstreams to the 
FPGA using the Xilinx iMPACT software tool. In addition, the JTAG connector allows 
debug tools such as the ChipScope® Pro Analyzer tool or a software debugger to access the 
FPGA. The iMPACT software tool can also program the BPI flash via the USB J4 
connection. iMPACT can download a temporary design to the FPGA through the JTAG. 
This provides a connection within the FPGA from the FPGAs JTAG port to the FPGAs BPI 
interface. Through the connection made by the temporary design in the FPGA, iMPACT 
can indirectly program the BPI flash from the JTAG USB J4 connector. For an overview on 
configuring the FPGA, see Configuration Options.
7. Clock Generation
There are three clock sources available on the SP605. 
Oscillator (Differential)
The SP605 has one 2.5V LVDS differential 200 MHz oscillator (U6) soldered onto the board 
and wired to an FPGA global clock input.
• Crystal oscillator: SiTime SiT9102AI-243N25E200.00000
• Frequency stability: 50 ppm
