Difference between CoBo 1.0v and CoBo 0.2v

  • Rocket IO GTX Transceiver improvements
    • Bank 12, 15, and 22 are no longer used
    • Re-routed signals away from MGT VCC/GND
  • Mutant WSCA/SYNC signal is now on a CC pin
  • Improved board power and power management
    • 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.
      • (C113) and (C122) are now 220uF instead of 330uF
    • Improved Power up sequence
      • No longer uses an additional (U35) chip (TPS3808G09DBVR)
      • Power-up sequence used to be VCCINT → VCC3V3 & VCC5V0. Now it is VCC5V0 → VCC3V3 → VCCINT
        • This reduces the race condition when BPI booting from flash
