IXD1110 Demo Board

2.0Quick Start

The quick-start procedure allows for IXF1110 1000 Mbps SerDes data transfer evaluation in the following interfaces:

IXF1110 SPI4-2 loopback data transfer

I2C signals

CPU interface

2.1Setup

The following quick-start procedure uses the IXIA* 1600T packet generator to evaluate the IXD1110 demo board. All ports on the IXF1110 are set to a default setting of 1000 Mbps full-duplex (see Figure 2, “Typical Test Setup” on page 12).

1.Set reset jumper JP2 to the HRESET position.

2.Jumper pins 6 and 8 of JP1.

3.Install optic modules on all ten ports.

4.Connect the IXF1110 optic modules to the external ports on the IXIA* 1600T LM1000SX cards.

5.Verify that the CPU daughter card is installed on the bottom of the board.

6.Verify that the SPI4-2 loopback module is connected to the SPI4-2 connector.

7.Connect the 1.8 V DC power supply to BN1 (“1.8 V IXF”).

8.Connect the 2.5 V DC power supply to BN4 (“2.5 V IXF”) and BN5 (“2.5 V”).

9.Connect the 3.3 V DC power supply to BN6 (“3.3 V”).

10.Connect all power supply return lines to ground BN3 (“GND”).

11.With the board properly configured, proceed in the following order:

a.Apply +1.8 V DC power

b.Apply +2.5 V DC power

c.Apply+3.3 V, DC power

d.Press reset switch S1

12.Once the CPU Daughter Card has completed autoboot, the board is ready for evaluation of standard packets (64 - 1518 bytes) at 1000 Mbps full-duplex on all ports.

13.To access registers and RMON statistics, install the IXF1110 software. Instructions are provided in Section 5.2, “Installing the IXF1110 Software” on page 16. This allows the user to change the default settings of the IXF1110 and configure the device for other modes of operation.

14.Proceed with evaluation as desired.

Note: The IXF1110 software modifies some of the IXF1110 registers on power-up. For a complete list of registers modified, please refer to Section 4.2, “IXF1110 Register Modifications on Startup” on page 14.
