PB30: Prototyping peripheral board
Supporting the flexible and extensible nature of Altium’s NanoBoard/Daughter Board/Peripheral Board FPGA development system, the PB30 Peripheral Board provides a rapid prototyping space to quickly test out additional hardware resources. The board has pre-defined land areas to accommodate SMD components of various pitch, as well as areas for thru-hole components. Through its standard connector, the board provides access to generic IO and services that are common to all Altium peripheral boards. The reference design includes full schematics and PCB layout for the board.
The PB30 includes the following features:
- Pre-defined land patterns for easy location of surface mount devices with 0.5mm, 0.65mm and 0.8mm pitches. Each SMD pad is connected to a 0.5mm hole to allow simple connections using prototyping wire.
- General purpose area offering 2.54mm (0.1") pitch – perfect for thru-hole components
- General purpose area offering 1.27mm (0.05") pitch – suitable for SMD, with 0.5mm thru-hole located centrally to each SMD pad
- Ability to locate and wire resources on either or both sides of the board – maximizing the prototyping space available
- 1-Wire® memory device used to store board ID and related information
- Single on-board connector follows standard Altium peripheral board pinout providing easy access to the following generic IO and common services:
- 50 x general purpose IO
- Hard and Soft JTAG signals – allowing for inclusion of a JTAG-equipped physical device such as an additional FPGA resource.
- Audio signals – Line In (L+R), Line Out (L+R) and Mic In
- I2C interface – allowing use of resources possessing an I2C-compatible interface.
- SPI Bus interface, with two dedicated chip select lines – allowing for up to two SPI-based resources.
- 1-Wire Bus interface signal – allowing for use of one or more slave 1-Wire compatible devices.
- Four pins made available to receive gated clock signals from the NanoBoard's Host (NanoTalk) Controller (3 clock signals and 1 enable signal).
- Power rails: +5V, +3V3, +2V5, +1V8, +1V2, and GND.
- Standard, double-sized peripheral board
- 3 standard board colors – red, green and blue
- High-quality gold PCB finish
