Hardware Reset

Added by Craig Little almost 11 years ago

Hi There,

Is there a pin on the MityDSP-L138F processor board FPGA which is attached to a
dedicated power-on/hardware reset source which can be used to initialise/reset registers?

Kind regards,
Steven Bremner.

When there is a power on reset, the FPGA will be re-initialized (the program pin is pulled low) and will require reprogramming.

Are you looking for an additional pin that may be used to reset just the FPGA?

Hi Mike,

In effect yes. I was wondering if the device/circuit which drives the reset pin of the OMAP processor is also
connected to the FPGA and if yes, which pin.

Regards,
Steven.

On the MityDSP-L138F, RESET_IN pin is fed into a TPS3808G33DBVR reset monitor circuit. It is not connected to the FPGA or the OMAP-L138 directly. The output RESET of the TPS3808 is fed to the RESET pin on the OMAP-L138. The OMAP-L138 RESETOUT# signal (ball T17) is connected via a transistor (Q1 on clip of the schematic below) to the PROGRAM pin on the FPGA.
