• Jack on card has priority over connection to chassis jack
  • Chassis front panel jack gets disconnected when jack is plugged into the card
• Stereo pinout
  • Tip: This acts as the left channel signal wire

• J13 is header to case jack
• Minimal LP filter
• FPGA Sound on our GitHub
• Using PWM to generate sound
• How to Generate Sound using PWM
• Run at frequency well above audio, say 44.1 or 48 KHz
• Output of filter with 50% duty cycle will produce smoothed average voltage at the mid-point
• Values > 50% duty cycle will produce a voltage higher than the average
• Values < 50% duty cycle will produce a voltage lower than the average

Revision History

Rev 2

• Moved upper right mounting hole
• Fixed R23 DRC
• Add pull-up resistors for input only pins
  • J8-35, 36, 57, 58
• Move silkscreen pin numbers around FPGA a bit
• Widen JTAG silkscreen block
• Verified pin No Connects are correct
• Added Rev 2 marking
• Change R2H, etc to call out R/G/B (match PL)
• Tested/works
  • Video
  • PS/2 keyboard
  • SD card
  • 5V input

Rev 1

• Upper right mounting hole (near XAIO USB/Serial interface) is in wrong spot
  • At 0.9" from edge, should be 0.9" from upper left mounting hole
  • Not big issue, no mechanical interference on board, just use 3 mounting holes to install in case
  • Yabs = 2.47480315, change to 2.87480315
• R23 DRC error
  • Overshot pin on rear side
  • Verified right pin is connected
• Input only pins (using Cyclone 10) do not support internal pull-ups
• Missing Rev marking (use P-Touch label)
