iCEstick Evaluation Kit Users Guide August 2013 EB82_01.0iCEstick Evaluation Kit Introduction Thank you for choosing the Lattice Semiconductor iCEstick Evaluation Kit. This guide describes how to start using the iCEstick Evaluation Kit, an easy-to-use USB form factor board for rap- idly prototyping designs using the iCE40 FPGA. Along with the evaluation board, this kit includes a pre-loaded design that demonstrates basic board functionality. The contents of this users guide include demo operations, descriptions of the various portions of the evaluation board, descriptions of the on-board connectors, a complete set of schematics and bill of materials for the iCEstick Evaluation Board. Features The iCEstick Evaluation Kit includes: iCEstick Evaluation Board features the following on-board components High-performance, low-power iCE40HX1K FPGA FTDI 2232H USB device allows iCE device programming and UART interface to a PC Vishay TFDU4101 IrDA transceiver Five user LEDs TM 2 x 6 position Diligent Pmod compatible connector enables many other peripheral connections Discera 12Mhz MEMS oscillator Micron 32Mbit N25Q32 SPI flash Supported by Lattice iCEcube2 design software USB connector provides the power supply 16 LVCMOS/LVTTL (3.3V) digital I/O connections on 0.1 through-hole connections Pre-loaded demo design the kit includes the pre-loaded demo design that flashes the on-board LEDs in a clockwise pattern. USB connector provides a communication and debug port via a USB-to-RS-232 physical channel and pro- gramming interface to the PC.
