Quick Start Guide
The KCU105 Evaluation Kit contains all the necessary hardware, tools, and IP
to evaluate and develop your Kintex® UltraScale™ FPGA design.
This quick start guide provides instructions to set up and configure the
board, run the Board Self Test, install the Xilinx tools, and redeem the
license voucher.

Board Self-Test Demo
**KCU105 Evaluation Kit
STEP 1
Set Configuration Switches
Set the SW15-6 in the OFF position.
Note: SW15-6 (FPGA_M2) selects the configuration mode for the UltraScale
device:
0: Master SPI configuration mode
1: JTAG configuration mode
STEP 2
Connect Power
Connect the 6-pin power supply plug to J15, and turn on the board power with
the SW1 switch.
Power good LED, DS3, illuminated green indicates power system is good.
DONE LED, DS34, illuminated green indicates UltraScale device configured
successfully.
STEP 3
Initialize Configuration
Press SW4 (PROG) to initialize the Board Self Test.
The GPIO LEDs will turn on, then off and the Board Self Test test will start.
STEP 4
Run the Board Self Test
The Board Self-Test consists of a set of Pass/Fail tests. Each test runs,
and when the test passes, the corresponding LED lights. If the test fails, the
corresponding LED is off. The Clock, DDR, BRAM, FLASH, and I2C tests run
without user input. The DIP, PB, and Rotary tests wait for the user to switch
the DIP switches, push the buttons, or rotate the rotary encoder. The LED for
the test that is waiting for user input slowly flashes ON and OFF.
Board Self-Test Assignments for GPIO LEDs

MSB → LSB
7| 6| 5| 4| 3| 2| 1| 0
Clock| DDR| BRAM| Flash| I2C| DIP| PB| Rotary
The DIP test checks whether all the DIP switches on SW12 are in the ON
position. The test passes when the DIP switches are all in the ON position.
The PB test checks the push buttons. The test passes when each button has been
pushed. The N, W, S, and E, push buttons can be pushed in any order, but push
the center button last.
The rotary test passes after the rotary switch has been turned both left and
right (in any order), and its integrated push button is activated by pressing
the switch towards the middle of the board.
Note: To skip the DIP, PB, or rotary tests, push the center PB switch
(SW7). To run the Board Self Test again, press SW4 (PROG).
