EVAL-AD6676 Quick Start Guides

The Quick Start Guide provides a simple step by step instruction on how to do an initial system setup for the EVAL-AD6676 board on the ZC706 FPGA development board. It will discuss how to program the bitstream, run a no-OS program or boot a Linux distribution.

Supported carrier

The EVAL-AD6676 is, by definition a “FPGA mezzanine card” (FMC), that means it needs a carrier to plug into. The carrier we support is:

Board

EVAL-AD6676

FMC Connector

ZC706

HPC

Supported Environments

The supported environments are:

Board

HDL

Linux Software

No-OS Software

ZC706

Yes

Yes

Yes

Hardware Setup

The EVAL-AD6676 board connects to the HPC FMC connector on the ZC706. The carrier setup requires power, UART (115200), ethernet (Linux), HDMI (if available) and/or JTAG (no-OS) connections.

All the products described on this page include ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive devices. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000V readily accumulate on the human body or test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the boards feature ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices subjected to high-energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality. This includes removing static charge on external equipment, cables, or antennas before connecting to the device.
