Power Regulation
R
The FPGA can drive VMARGIN_DN_xxxx_N and VMARGIN_UP_xxxx_N signals, where
xxxx indicates one of the six main power regulators: SSTL2, HSTL, SSTL18, VCC1V0,
VCC2V5, and VCC3V3.
If both voltage-margining inputs to the power regulator are pulled Low, the output voltage
is close to nominal but has the possibility of a slightly higher error in the output voltage.
The power modules use a low-leakage open-drain control signal to control the voltage
margining. In the FPGA, this can be approximated by using a control signal that drives the
output Low when active and does not drive the signal at all when inactive (high-
impedance output).
Three-pin headers are available for performing manual voltage margining, using jumpers
to select between Nominal, -5%, and +5%. Table 3-17 shows the jumper settings.
The TI PTH05010-WAZ and TI PTH05000-ADJ regulator outputs can be enabled or
inhibited through the use of on-board two-pin jumpers. The inhibit jumpers use the
following conventions:
Jumper OFF = Enabled
Jumper ON = Inhibited
