Unlisted boards
If you need more information on whether the Ethernet FMC is compatible with a carrier that is not listed above, please first check the compatibility list. If the carrier is not listed there, please contact Opsero, provide us with the pinout of your carrier and we’ll be happy to check compatibility and generate a Vivado constraints file for you.
Board specific notes
ZCU106
The HPC0 connector on this board supports all 4 ports of the Ethernet FMC. This design uses up all 4 GEMs, leaving the ZCU106’s on-board Ethernet port unusable.
ZCU102
This design supports the ZCU102 Rev 1.0 board. Use a commit before 2017/02/13 for the older Rev-D board design. Note that the FMC pinouts differ between Rev 1.0 and Rev D: Answer record 68050
The HPC0 design uses 4x GEMs to connect to ports 0-3 of the Ethernet FMC. This design uses up all 4 GEMs, leaving the ZCU102’s on-board Ethernet port unusable.
The HPC1 design uses 3x GEMs to connect to ports 0-2 of the Ethernet FMC. The 4th port is left unconnected because certain pins required by the Ethernet FMC (namely LA30, LA31 and LA32) are left unconnected on the HPC1 connector of the ZCU102 board. The ZCU102’s on-board Ethernet port connects to GEM3 and is usable in this design.
UltraZed-EG and UltraZed-EV
The UltraZed designs use 4x GEMs to connect to ports 0-3 of the Ethernet FMC. These designs use up all 4 GEMs, leaving the on-board Ethernet port unusable.
ZedBoard and PicoZed
When changing ETHERNET_PORT (in platform_config.h.in, see the
stand-alone echo server page) from 0–2 to 3 — that is,
when switching from the AXI Ethernet cores to GEM1 — it has been noticed
that you have to power cycle the board. When the standalone application
is configured for AXI Ethernet, the platform makes some Zynq PS
configurations that are not compatible with the GEM1 configuration.
The on-board Ethernet port on all of these designs is connected to GEM0. The reference
PetaLinux images in this repo disable GEM0 (to avoid a U-Boot crash, see advanced);
the on-board port is therefore not used by default but can be re-enabled by editing the
board’s system-user.dtsi. The standalone echo server targets one port at a time and does
not drive the on-board port either.
