Figure 4 – IPMI Identification, Block Diagram

Before the module is powered-up, the carrier must identify the FMC module. At this point, the main power to the module is off.
Only the auxiliary 3.3V power rail (3P3VAUX) is active.

The carrier detects the presence of an FMC module by verifying that PRSTN_M2C_L is asserted low. It then queries the I2C
EEPROM to discover which voltage is requested by the module for VADJ. The EEPROM for this module will support the
following voltages:

• 2.5 V
• 3.3 V

The carrier will power up the module by applying the requested voltage to VADJ. When the voltage is valid, the PG_C2M (ie.
power good) will be asserted high. An inverted version of this signal is used to enable all the voltage level translators
connected to VADJ.

VREF_A_M2C is not used for this FMC module.

The address of the I2C EEPROM will be determined by the GA[0:1] signals driven by the carrier.

Note : The GA[0:1] bits are incorrectly connected on the Dual Image Sensor FMC Module (they are swapped).

Table 5 describes the normal EEPROM address, and the actual EEPROM address for the Dual Image Sensor FMC Module.

The GA[0:1] swap error will only be a problem on FMC carriers which are using both GA[0:1]==01 and GA[0:1]==10.

The OmniVision image sensors use the VCAM voltage selected by the J302 jumper. This voltage will either be 3.3 V or 5.0 V.

All image sensor signals connected to the FMC connector pass through several Texas Instruments SN74AVCH16T245 voltage
level translators. The voltage level translators are enabled by an inverted version of the PG_C2M signal, which indicates when
the VADJ voltage is valid.

The XCLK signals, originating from the on-board Texas Instruments CDCE925 clock synthesizer, are also voltage translated
using a simple passive circuit. The I2C signals, originating from the Texas Instruments PCA9546A I2C Multiplexer do not
require voltage translation, as this device already performs voltage translation.

Y2 PLL1 Can be used for any application
Y3 - Unused
Y4 PLL2 Must be used for Camera #1’s XCLK
Y5 PLL2 Must be used for Camera #2’s XCLK
Table 9 – Video Clock Generator, Clock Output Usage
The Y4 and Y5 clock outputs are dedicated to be used as the reference clock (XCLK) for the image sensor modules.

The Y1 and Y2 clock outputs can be used for any application. One of these applications could be the clock source for the DVI
output.

The default mode of the CDCE925 is to output a 27 MHz clock on all of its outputs.

Configuration is performed via I2C. The SDA/SCL pins of the CDCE925 device are 3.3 V tolerant.
The settings of the CDCE925 video clock synthesizer can be calculated automatically using the TI Pro-Clock™ software.

3.0 Known Issues & Limitations
This section describes the known issues and limitations for the Dual Image Sensor FMC Module.

3.1 PG_C2M
The FMC specification specified that a pull-up may be used used on a FMC carrier for the C2M_PG signal.

The Dual Image Sensor FMC Module schematics, however, has a pull-down (R106) on this signal. It also has a LED (R105,
D100), which acts as an additional pull-down. This creates contention with the pull-up on the FMC carrier.

This is a design error, and should not be copied to a new design.

This error has been handled by not populating the components shown in the following figure.

Figure 10 – Dual Image Sensor FMC Module, PG_C2M related components (R105, R106, D100 unpopulated)

3.2 GA[0:1]
The FMC specification specified that the GA[0:1] signals should be connected to the IPMI EEPROM’s A[1:0] address lines as
follows:.
• GA[0] => I2C EEPROM device’s A[1]
• GA[1] => I2C EEPROM device’s A[0]

The Dual Image Sensor FMC Module schematics, however, has the GA[0:1] connected in reverse order.
• GA[0] => I2C EEPROM device’s A[0]
• GA[1] => I2C EEPROM device’s A[1]

This is a design error, and should not be copied to a new design.

This error has not been fixed on the module since it can be handled by software. For more information on how this affects the
address of the I2C EEPROM, refer to section “I2C Chain 1 – IPMI Identification EEPROM”.
