FMC LPC Breakout Card for FPGA Debug and Prototyping

NEW UPDATED 2026 DESIGN V3.0 !!!
Features convinient labeled pin headers following FMC naming conventions, and high speed SMA ports to select FMC clock signals.DATA SHEET Irvine Breakout Electronics FMC LPC Prototyping Breakout Board is a signal breakout board thatallows access to all signals from standard-compliant ANSI/VITA 57.1 FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) low-pincount (LPC) connectors. The card is compatible with a wide range of baseboards and FPGA evaluationsboards with standard FMC sockets. Examples include evaluation boards from Xilinx®, Intel®, Avnet® andDigilent®. The card provides passive connectivity to all 160 signals on the FMC (LPC) connector via 4 xstandard 0.100” pitch (2.54 mm) headers. When connected with loose wires or jumper cables, header rowsC, D, G, H can provide stable signals data paths in the tens of megahertz. This includes 34 x differential LVDSpairs (LA00:33) or 68 x single-ended signals. The differential pairs are balanced for track length. The groundpins of the FMC are also connected to an independent ground plane to offer the best possible signal integrityand noise immunity. The provided 6 SMA connectors offer hard-wired connections to the CLK0_M2C_P,CLK0_M2C_N, CLK1_M2C_P, CLK1_M2C_N, GBTCLK0_M2C_P, GBTCLK0_M2C_N. The SMA connectorsbehaviors are user defined, and provide stable data paths up to 2 Ghz.

• Ideal for prototyping and development of custom digital interfaces, LVDS interfaces, or general purpose digital logic connectivity.
• Standard 2.54mm pitch pin headers breakout 160 FMC-LPC pins for user defined IO connectivity up to 25Mhz.
• Standard SMA connectors to FMC-LPC provide user-defined clock IO up to 2Ghz.
• FMC connector rows C, D, G and H are clearly labeled for ease of use.
• A independent ground plane and balanced track lengths ensure signal integrity and low noise.
