MitySOM-5CSX Embedded VDK for Basler dart
2 April 2018
Debug UART to USB Interface Description
The on-board UART to USB Bridge, FTDI FT230X, provides a serial interface at data
rates up to 115,200 baud using a mini USB type B connector. The USB serial interface,
J1, is routed to the MitySOM serial boot loading port, UART0. It allows for general
module debug, remote code download and flash upgrades on an attached MitySOM from
this connector when interfaced with a PC.
When connected to a Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8 PC no drivers are required as Windows
Update is used to obtain the drivers.
USB 2.0 Interface Description
The on-board USB OTG interface utilizes a mini B type connector J401 and interfaces
with the USB PHY on the MitySOM-5CSX module. This PHY is connected to the USB0
controller within the Cyclone V SoC HPS. Linux drivers are available. This interface
allows for a connection to either a PC or a USB device using an USB OTG to USB A
type adapter, not included.
MultiMedia Card (SD) Interface Description
The on-board MultiMedia Card (MMC) slot uses a Secure Digital connector J403 which
supports standard (3.3V) cards. U-Boot configuration information and Linux drivers are
available.
Gigabit Ethernet Interface Description
The on-board Ethernet interface features a Micrel KSZ9031 Ethernet PHY capable of
running at 10/100/1000Mbit, including link auto-negotiation and RGMII/MDIO
capability. An industry standard RJ-45 connector is provided for external connection.
This Ethernet interface may be used to perform remote code download via U-Boot and
flash upgrades on an attached MitySOM-5CSX module in addition to standard network
interfacing.
M.2 PCIe Interface Description
The on-board M.2 standard connector allows for connection to the MitySOM-5CSX
module gigabit transceivers configured in PCIe x4 (Gen 1) mode. This allows interfacing
to M.2 NVME SSD cards for data recording and playback.
Dual Basler dart Interface Description
Two Basler dart BCON camera flat flex cable (FFC) interfaces, J101 and J102, are
provided to allow capturing video data from 1 or 2 Basler dart BCON camera systems.
GPIO Connector Description
Connector P1 includes 6 pins connected, via a 1 K series resistor, to spare FPGA pins on
Bank 4A of the MitySOM-5CSX. These pins can be programmed as inputs or outputs for
end application use. The connector also includes +5V, +2.5V and ground reference pins
for powering of external circuitry.

Dual +5V Fan Interface Description
MitySOM-5CSX Embedded VDK for Basler dart
2 April 2018
Two connectors, J2 and J3, are included that provide +5V power. The intent for these
connectors is to power simple +5V fans (not included) in the situation that the system
must be cooled.
Reset Switch Description
S41 is for the Cold Reset which causes the MitySOM input power supply to be toggled.
Boot Configuration Description
The baseboard is designed to configure the MitySOM-5CSX module to boot from the
MMC/SD card.

Notes:
1. The maximum current supplied to external components should be limited to the specified maximum for
all externally connected power supplies. Total power delivered to externally connected 5.0V and 3.3V
supplies cannot exceed 10 Watts (5 Watts are reserved for on-board components including the MitySOM-
5CSX daughter card). External power connections must comply with the maximum rated current per pin
for a given connector.
2. M.2 NVME cards not attached, 100% ARM utilization, RS-232 and Ethernet are enabled and active. 1

ELECTRICAL INTERFACE DESCRIPTIONS
Input Power – J601
The MitySOM-5CSX Embedded VDK power interface, J601, requires a single +5 Volt
power supply. A recommended input supply rating of at least 3A is recommended and a
3A supply with universal AC plugs is included with each kit. The pinout for J601 is listed
in Table 1.
