onsemi XGS X-Celerator Developer Kit

INTRODUCTION

The X−Celerator kit is designed to enable FPGA development around ON Semiconductor’s XGS image sensor family. The kit provides a sensor HiSpi receiver example as starting point to allow for a quicker and more easy integration to standard FPGA evaluation environments. The interface example was created for a Xilinx UltraScale architecture.
The headboard can feature ON Semiconductor XGS 5000, XGS 12000 or XGS 16000 image sensor integrated on a standard High−Speed Array VITA 57.1 FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) with onboard power management.

IP CORE ARCHITECTURE
Reference RTL code for the HiSpi receiver (see Figure 2) is available under NDA and structured as three modular IP core blocks (deserializer, decoder and remapper) that convert the XGS HiSpi output to an AXI4 video streaming standard. These blocks are written in a flexible and generic form that is easily modified and inserted in any FPGA vendor technology or design methodology. The X−Celerator contains a ready-to-use block diagram example solution for each of the sensor variants, designed for the Xilinx Kintex UltraScale architecture.
Although the RTL IP core blocks have been validated to work on Altera (Intel) development boards, active support for the HiSpi receiver on these systems is currently not yet available.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Figure 1 shows the stripped XGS 12000 X−Celerator FMC headboard (78.8 x 69 mm) with protective foil on the sensor, designed with a small form factor in mind (29 x 29 mm). This is the single part that changes between the different Orderable Part Numbers (OPN’s), provided in Table 1. The kit furthermore consists out of a lens mount, extension barrel, Low−pin Count (LPC) FMC cable, tripod mount and a tripod in order to enable a more user−friendly tripod configuration. The individual parts are discussed in more detail in the following subsections. Please note that these OPN’s do NOT include a lens or development board.

Image Sensor Board
This board features one of ON Semiconductor XGS image sensors implemented on an ANSI/VITA 57.1 single-width FMC standard module board with full channel (24 lanes for XGS 12000 and XGS 16000 and 16 lanes for XGS 5000) HiSpi video output, the necessary sensor control signals provided over SPI and a single 3.3 V power supply input. The ON Semiconductor’s NCP6914 Mini−PMIC provides all the necessary low-noise power supplies for image sensor operations.
Figure 3 and Table 2 show the board layout and the Bill of Materials (BOM) for the X−Celebrator. Detailed layout files and schematics are available under NDA.

Low−pin Count (LPC) FMC Cable
Provided with the OPN’s comes a VITA 57.1 FMC Samtec LPC HDR Cable, as shown in Figure 4, to connect the headboard in its tripod configuration. Specifications on the usable cables can be found on the Samtec VITA family webpage.
The provided cable (HDR−169473−01) is the LPC variant of the FMC connection, chosen for improved flexibility, proof of concept and reduced costs. The HPC variant of this cable can be chosen just as well but is not provided in this development kit OPN.
More information on LPC vs HPC can be found in the section on FMC connection pins.

DIMENTIONS

EVBUM2676/D

Lens Mount
The headboard comes with a standard C−mount lens holder that is screwed onto the board. The lens mount is made of black aluminum and fits in a 29 x 29 mm2 design, as shown in Figure 6.
The lens mount comes with a 5 mm C−Mount extender barrel, see Figure 6, to provide a focal distance of 17.4 mm to the sensor.

Tripod Mount
In order to mount the cable firmly to the provided headboard, two different aluminum mounting pieces are provided that serve a dual purpose. Both as tripod mount for the provided tripod, see Figure 7, and as FMC cable connector lock, see Figure 8, to secure your hardware connection. These pieces are connected by two M2.5 screws and nuts.

Tripod
The last part to make the development kit complete is a standard adjustable tripod to aim the image sensor in any direction that is desired.
Not Included: Lens and FPGA Development Platform
ON Semiconductor provides a suggested lens list compatible with the XGS products on the public product page. The development kit does not include a FPGA development platform as different needs require different platforms.

FMC CONNECTION PINS

The High−pin Count (HPC) FMC connector, see Table 3, provides maximal compatibility for the X−Celebrator. This HPC connector is designed to mate with both LPC and HPC connectors on the carrier board. Table 4 demonstrates this by using only the C, D, G, H pin arrays for critical communication. Only 28 out of the 80 differential pairs on the HPC (34 on LPC) connector are being used to communicate with the sensor. The other pins are still available for additional development. For example, a display port module.

DELAWARE AS INTERFACING SOFTWARE LAYER
From DevWare version 6.0.38 onward, Delaware is able to recognize and interface with FPGA boards, that contain the latest X−Celerator bit files. With the RADON driver (found on MyON) installed, DevWare should automatically recognize the X−Celebrator on your FPGA board connected to the PC, the correct sensor INI file still needs to be selected (and downloaded from the image sensor portal) to load the latest register settings and demonstrate the best capabilities of the sensor.
Figure 9 shows a complete development platform setup using the X−Celerator development kit, an Edmund optics lens (not included) and a Xilinx Kintex UltraScale FPGA KCU105 evaluation kit. Please note that for most development needs this KCU105 evaluation kit is over−qualified and cheaper options are available.
