Rocket IO GTX Transceiver improvements
Improved board power and power management
VCCINT, VCC3V3, and VCC5V0 no longer require a 350Khz resonator. i.e. Sync is disabled
VCCINT now uses a 10A switching regulator instead of a 16A
Input capacitance now conforms with MicroTCA requirement. i.e. it doesn't exceed 800uF
Improved Power up sequence
Mutant WSCA/SYNC signal is now on a CC pin
Footprint updates
(U36), (U38), and (U39) Switching regulators have updated hole sizes for better fitting
(SW2) HDT001 switch layout fixes
-
CKRs traces from PLL to LVDS buffer and from LVDS buffer to VHDCI connector are now equal
CKWs traces from PLL to LVDS buffer and from LVDS buffer to VHDCI connector are now equal
On LMK04800 (U41) CLKin1 no longer uses MCH clock as an input. A dedicated oscillator is now used (X9)
re-arranged outputs on LMK04800 (U41)
Consistent labeling and naming scheme on Front panel
Move usb-uart (J3) foward i.e. closer to front panel
USB-UART (U60) is power thru USB
Add 0 ohm resistors between MAX3378EEUD+ and FPGA (LEMO)
